Oman Med J. 2023 Sep 28;38(5):e554. doi: 10.5001/omj.2023.41. eCollection 2023 Sep.ABSTRACTGastrointestinal gases become combustible when several gases reach a certain concentration. This occurs in situations where the gastrointestinal tract is obstructed for a certain amount of time. Hence, we present this case of a gastric explosion in a patient while performing a gastrojejunostomy. The reason underlying this combustion involved concomitant chronic pyloric stenosis. Operative procedures should include this information to enhance the safety of the patient and the surgical team.PMID:37771887 | PMC:PMC10522885 | DOI:10.5001...
