Gastric tuberculosis is a rare presentation of tuberculosis infection. Gastric perforation associated with tuberculosis is exceedingly rare with five previously published cases. We present a case of a male patient that developed presumed gastric tuberculosis secondary to pulmonary tuberculosis infection. He subsequently developed gastric perforation and sepsis, for which he was treated both surgically and medically. Despite ongoing antituberculosis treatment, the patient's condition worsened and the patient died secondary to multiorgan failure. This case highlights gastric perforation as a rare but devastating complication of pulmonary tuberculosis.

Rapunzel syndrome complicated with gastric perforation is a very rare presentation of trichobezoar. Trichobezoar is an uncommon condition affecting predominantly females. It has non-specific clinical presentation, a wide range of complications, and, if not treated appropriately, carries significant mortality. Traditional treatment of trichobezoar is surgical, though, attempts have been made to excise endoscopically, dissolve chemically or fragment using extracorporeal shock waves. We report a case of a very large trichobezoar occupying most of the stomach and duodenum complicated with gastric perforation, and summarise the literature regarding trichobezoar aetiology, diagnostic difficulties, and management.

Incidence of Peptic ulcer perforation in children and adolescents are very rare. Perforated gastric ulcer is extremely rare with only handful of cases reported worldwide in the same age group. Pneumoperitoneum and peritonitis due to gastric perforation is a very rare presentation in children and adolescents and it can often be overlooked with disastrous consequences. Even though in young patients, peptic ulcerations can happen in association with H. pylori infection, secondary to medications like non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, corticosteroids, rarely due to Zollinger Ellison syndrome, related to stress, post burns or head trauma it is seldom common. Among perforations gastric perforation is very rare. Here we discuss a case of 15-year-old school student who presented with acute abdominal pain and features of peritonitis which we initially thought probably due to perforated appendix but turned out to be a gastric perforation. Plain radiograph of the abdomen showed pneumoperitoneum. When an emergency midline laparotomy was performed, we found a perforation in gastric antrum anteriorly with peritonitis which was treated by thorough decontamination and Graham's live omental patch closure. H. Pylori tests were negative. At a time when acute presentation of peptic ulcerations or perforation as its complication is decreasing in incidence worldwide, this case has come as an eye opener. Thus, perforated gastric/duodenal ulcer in pediatric and young adult patient should not be overlooked in a young patient presenting with acute abdomen. Many times, there is no clear etiology and then it is spontaneous perforation. Emergency surgical management is the preferred mode of treatment.

Dengue fever is a common disease in tropical and subtropical regions and is characterized by fever, headache, and joint and muscle pain. Occasionally, patients develop abdominal and gastrointestinal symptoms. Gastrointestinal manifestations are increasingly being identified in severe dengue infection. Gastric perforation is very rare manifestation in dengue infection. Here we report a case of a 12 year old female who was diagnosed with dengue fever with perforative peritonitis due to prepyloric perforation with no prior symptoms of gastric ulcer.
