Description
A barium swallowing test led to gut ischemia in a rare case. Peng Xu, Shili Zhong, and Xiaoyu Peng report the 2026 survival case. Barium contrast helps image the upper gut. Gut blood loss after such tests is very rare.
Their patient was a 62-year-old man. Eight hours after his test, pain and shock signs hit. Scans showed gas in liver and gut veins. That gas marks serious belly trouble. Strong anti-infection care started at once. Gas cleared within twelve more hours. He recovered fully by one month. Fast intensive care saved him, the authors stress.
