Case description

This 67 year-old woman, presented with abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, endoscopy displays an image that divided the stomach into two parts due to retraction of the gastric wall. Ulcers may lead to the formation of smooth, symmetric folds that radiate from the ulcer crater. The opposite wall may also be retracted; this produces an incisura of the greater curvature and, ultimately, an hourglass stomach.
