Abdominal complications such as gastric distention and mucosal tears secondary to cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) are not uncommon, however, gastric perforation is very unusual, and its endoscopic evidence is anecdotical. A case of a 58-year-old man with gastric perforation and upper gastrointestinal bleeding is presented, in which prolonged CPR was performed due to out-of-hospital sudden death.

Palabras llave : Gastric perforation; Cardiopulmonary resuscitation; Abdominal complications; Upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
