Abstract
We report in this clinical case Mallory-Weiss syndrome suspected on computed tomography (CT) and confirmed on endoscopy. Mallory-Weiss syndrome is a rare cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding from vomiting-induced mucosal laceration(s) at the gastroesophageal junction. The description of Mallory-Weiss Syndrome is rare on imaging and this observation provides CT semiological elements useful in detecting signs of Mallory-Weiss syndrome.
