Gastrorrhagia

Gastrorrhagia is a disease in which spontaneous release of gastric contents occurs without the assistance of swallowing or chewing reflexes. It occurs rarely, most often over the age of 50 in men.

Signs of the stomach also include darkening of the teeth, changes in skin color, and jaundice. The stool is liquid and contains mucus, blood, and intestines. Treatment is surgical.
