Rupture of the stomach, also known as gastric rupture, is a medical emergency where the stomach wall tears or breaks, leading to the release of its contents into the abdominal cavity. This condition can result from various causes, including trauma, severe stomach distension, or underlying gastrointestinal disorders. Symptoms may include severe abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and signs of shock. Prompt surgical intervention is typically required to repair the rupture and prevent life-threatening complications, such as peritonitis.
