The images show a deep stomach ulcer that bled causing sudden and profuse hematemesis. Stomach and bowel were distended by bloody content. The cause of death was hypovolemic shock.

Dear Luciano, I have some doubts: was the pacient a chronic alcoholist? Did you see ascitis or other signs of portal hypertension?
The basic cause of the ulcera was H. pylori infection?!
