摘要
Gastric perforation is a rare yet critical clinical disorder that demands prompt medical attention. Gastric ulcers often manifest on the anterior wall of the stomach, underscoring the importance of early detection for an improved prognosis. This study delves into a specific case, shedding light on a 10-year-old male child diagnosed with steroid-induced gastric perforation. The diagnosis was established through a meticulous examination of the clinical history and a plain abdominal X-ray, culminating in a timely and decisive surgical intervention for repair.
