Since at first the lesion seemed to be present most usually when there was infarction of the posterior wall of the heart, it was postulated that perhaps a specific nervous pathway might be implicated in a neurovascular reflex homologous to those involved in the production of referred pain. Although such a hemorrhagic duodenitis has been previously described accompanying extensive burns, injury to the central nervous system, tumor of the brain and major operative procedures,...Bibliography1.
