Abstract

Gastric antral vascular ectasia ("watermelon stomach") is characterized by a prominent longitudinalerythematous fold of gastric antrum. Because it has usually been diagnosed by gastroscopy and biopsy, itsradiologic findings have not been well described. We report a case of gastric antral vascular ectasia, anddescribe its findings, as seen on UGIS, ultrasonography, and computed tomography.
