Abstract
The recognition of a cascade stomach, based on imaging, is not usually disputed by the clinician. Except for initiating therapy for reflux symptoms or for dyspepsia, a specific treatment is seldom required. Thus, a cascade stomach rarely attracts the interest of the gastroenterologist. Occasionally, more disparate features are described in a patient displaying a radiological upper gastroenterological series of this condition. It remains to prove that such symptoms represent coincidental, but non-specific features of the ailment. A patient diagnosed with a cascade stomach, who exhibited various upper abdominal complaints, the majority of which are not associated, as a rule, with this condition, is hereby reported.
