A 39-year-old Chinese waiter presented with a 5 week history of intermittent epigastric pain, exacerbated after eating and increasing over the 3 days preceding admission with associated retching.Previous medical history included a vagotomy and gastro-enterostomy for duodenal ulcer many years earlier, and similar symptoms had settled with conservative management in the past.Examination revealed abdominal distension and highpitched bowel sounds. A plain abdominal radiograph was obtained (Fig. 1).
