Two patients with anorexia nervosa were treated on a general surgical unit for acute gastric dilatation. In both cases the dilatation rapidly followed an increase in the usual low dietary intake of the patients, and the ingestion of extra food may have initiated the acute episode. Conservative treatment with parenteral fluids, nasogastric intubation, and then a gradual return to a normal diet proved a satisfactory method of management. In one patient the anorexia itself was improved.
两名神经性厌食症患者因急性胃扩张在普通外科病房接受治疗。在这两例病例中，胃扩张均在患者通常较低的饮食摄入量增加后迅速出现，额外食物的摄入可能引发了急性发作。采用胃肠外补液、鼻胃管插管，然后逐渐恢复正常饮食的保守治疗方法被证明是一种令人满意的治疗方式。其中一名患者的厌食症本身也有所改善。
