title: [Gastric necrosis four years after fundoplication causing a dead foetus].
abstract: A 31-year-old pregnant woman was admitted and treated for diabetic ketoacidosis. As the patient deteriorated and the viability of the foetus was uncertain a CT scan was done which showed free fluid and air intraabdominally. Surgery was performed. A dead foetus was delivered and a 2 × 5 cm necrotic area of the gastric wall with a perforation was found. The gastric necrosis was a complication to a fundoplication in the patient.
