What causes gastroptosis?

Gastroptosis is caused by insufficient suspension of the diaphragm, relaxation of the ligaments supporting the internal organs, or reduction of intra-abdominal pressure and relaxation of the abdominal muscles, resulting in a greater curvature of the stomach when standing. When it reaches the pelvic cavity, the lowest point of the lesser curvature of the stomach drops below the line connecting the iliac crest.

The normal position of abdominal viscera is mainly fixed by three factors: the position of the diaphragm and the mobility of the diaphragm. Abdominal muscle strength and abdominal wall fat layer thickness. Fixation of adjacent organs or certain related ligaments.

Any factors that can affect the decline of the diaphragm position, such as reduced diaphragm activity, reduced abdominal pressure, weakened abdominal muscle contraction, excessive relaxation of the gastrophrenic ligament, gastrohepatic ligament, gastrosplenic ligament, and gastrocolic ligament etc., can all lead to sagging.

Poor eating habits can cause gastroptosis. For example, frequent fasting, overeating, etc. can cause gastroptosis. The muscles and ligaments that suspend and fix the position of the stomach are loose and weak, and the abdominal pressure decreases, causing the entire position of the stomach to lower and gastric motility to weaken. Women who experience a sudden drop in abdominal pressure after giving birth, have a lanky body shape, have chronic wasting diseases, and those who have been engaged in standing work or bedridden for a long time are prone to this disease.

What are the symptoms of gastroptosis?

1. Nausea and vomiting

It often occurs during activities after meals, especially when eating too much. This is because eating a larger amount of food at one time increases the traction of the gastric wall ligaments, causing pain, followed by nausea and vomiting.

2. Constipation

Constipation is mostly stubborn. The main reason may be due to the simultaneous sagging of the transverse colon, which makes the hepatic flexure and splenic flexure of the colon form an acute angle, resulting in slow passage.

3. Abdominal pain

Mostly it is persistent dull pain. It often occurs after meals and is related to food intake. The greater the amount of food eaten, the longer and more severe the pain will be. At the same time, pain is related to activity, and activities after meals often make the pain worse.

4. Abdominal distension

Abdominal distension and upper abdominal discomfort. Patients often report a feeling of fullness, heaviness, and pressure in the abdomen.

5. Neurological symptoms

Because the various symptoms of gastroptosis have tortured patients for a long time and made them mentally overburdened, resulting in insomnia, headache, dizziness, dullness, depression and other neurological symptoms symptom. There may also be symptoms such as hypotension, palpitations, and standing syncope.
