Chronic Esophagitis and Gastritis After Ingestion of Box Jellyfish (Class Cubozoa).

Benjamin R Smith1, Catherine M Sampert2.   

Abstract

This is a case report of chronic esophagitis and gastritis following the ingestion of box jellyfish (Alatina alata) by a 12-year old boy with severe autism spectrum disorder and pica. Biopsies taken at esophagogastroduodenoscopy at two months post ingestion revealed histological evidence of esophagitis and gastritis, which resolved after treatment with H2 receptor agonist and proton pump inhibitor. ©Copyright 2020 by University Health Partners of Hawai‘i (UHP Hawai‘i).
