Abstract
Stomach perforation is an unusual complication of cardiopulmonary resuscitation. It generally occurs while providing an advanced airway. Stomach perforation may develop as a consequence of chest compressions in a patient with stomach distention caused by long periods of bag-valve mask ventilation. We presented this case to emphasize that stomach perforation may develop during cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and early diagnosis and surgical treatment may be lifesaving.
