摘要
Spontaneous haemoperitoneum is described as a collection of blood in the peritoneal cavity due to non-traumatic aetiology. Common causes in the literature include splenic, hepatic and gynaecological pathology. Patients with spontaneous haemoperitoneum usually present with non-specific dull aching abdominal pain. Spontaneous haemoperitoneum can only be radiologically diagnosed and, if not treated in time, is life threatening. Rupture of a gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) presenting as a spontaneous haemoperitoneum is a rare event. Gastric GIST presents as ambiguous abdominal pain, complications of which include melena, obstruction and rupture. This is a report of a male patient in his early 60s who presented with acute abdominal pain. A contrast-enhanced CT of the abdomen showed haemoperitoneum with an unknown source of origin. Diagnostic laparoscopy showed a bleeding exophytic mass arising from the stomach, which was resected. Thus, early diagnosis with proper imaging and prompt treatment has a favourable outcome.
