title: [Intermittent retrograde transcardial gastroesophageal prolapse. Clinical picture. Endoscopic aspects. Radiographic study].
abstract: Intermittent transcardial prolapse and/or gastroesophageal invagination take place in some 16% of upper digestive tract endoscopies. The clinical picture may correspond to episodic epigastric symptomatology, massive digestive haemorrhage, and recurrent paroxystic heart rhythm disturbances. Prolapse can be recorded with a spot camera by means of an easy technique, so that its association with hiatal hernia, gastroesophageal reflux, peptic oesophagitis, etc. can be studied. Treatment is that applicable to cardiac incontinence and peptic oesophagitis.
