Particular note is made of the very high level of psychosocial maternal stress during the last trimester of pregnancy, and a causal relationship of this stress and the peptic ulceration is suggested.
Abstract
Death from haemorrhage is described in a 21-hour-old baby boy with acute gastric ulceration. Particular note is made of the very high level of psychosocial maternal stress during the last trimester of pregnancy. A causal relationship of this stress and the peptic ulceration is suggested, with gastrin as the mediator.
