- 3. A 42 year-old male presented to Hospital for evaluation of worsening abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting starting 3 days prior to presentation. On admission, his history was remarkable for four similar prior episodes over the previous five years that lasted between 3 and 5 days. He denied any constipation, obstipation or associated hematemesis, fevers, chills or urinary symptoms. During the first episode five years ago, he was evaluated at an outlying health center and diagnosed with peptic ulcer disease and was managed with omeprazole intermittently . His past medical and surgical history was non contributory and he had no allergies and he denied alcohol intake or tobacco use. His HIV serostatus was negative approximately one year prior to presentation. CASE

Abdominal examination revealed mild distension with generalized guarding and marked rebound tenderness in the epigastrium. There were no palpable masses and bowel sounds were absent. Full blood count and serum chemistry was unavailable . Erect and supine abdominal and chest radiographs were normal however, abdominal ultrasonography revealed free fluid throughout the abdomen and pelvis
