About perforation of gastric ulcer with fluoroscopy

Abstract

Among the unforeseen complications of fluoroscopy, there may be cases of perforation of the stomach ulcer. Fortunately, these cases are rare. In the world literature, only 16 cases are described, one way or another related to fluoroscopy. Of course, this is an insignificant figure compared to the countless thousands of patients who pass through the hands of radiologists every day.
