Case description

Hourglass stricture of the proximal gastric corpus. The image and the video display a proximal hourglass stricture of the gastric corpus. The video clip displays resistance to pass the endoscope through the stenosis. Retraction of the gastric wall adjacent to lesser-curve 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.
