Emphysematous gastritis in a newborn: Is it very rare or do we just miss it?

Emphysematous gastritis is a rare and life-threatening condition caused by gastric inflammation and intramural gas formation, most often diagnosed through radiological evidence of a radiolucent shadow in the stomach wall in the clinical scenario of severe sickness. We report a case of emphysematous gastritis secondary to early-onset neonatal sepsis in a newborn which, to the best of our knowledge, has not otherwise been reported. Is it very rare or do we just miss it? [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
