Typical symptoms

People with mild sagging generally have no symptoms, while those with obvious sagging will experience abdominal distension, upper abdominal discomfort, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, constipation, etc.

Other symptoms

Because the various symptoms of gastroptosis torment patients for a long time, they put too much mental burden on them, resulting in neuropsychiatric symptoms such as insomnia, headache, dizziness, dullness, and depression. Symptoms may also include hypotension, palpitations, and syncope upon standing.

Diagnosis

Symptoms include gastrointestinal dysfunction and secretory dysfunction, often with bloating, anorexia, belching, constipation, abdominal pain, etc., which are aggravated by standing for too long after meals and after fatigue, and abnormal X-rays appear.

Causes

Any factors that can cause the position of the diaphragm to drop, 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, can lead to sagging.
