Deskripsi

Ptosis of the food- and fluid-filled stomach is described as an ‘organic’ explanation for postprandial abdominal bloating in six patients. Demographic data, precipitating foods, radiography and gastric emptying times are presented. Therapy with support hose, a girdle, domperidone and cisapride were variously perceived to he helpful.
