We have provided imaging evidence supporting that the pathophysiology of many GVs is based on caudal re-descent of hiatal hernia into the abdominal cavity. Given the terminological disparity used in the literature in this context, we believe it appropriate to introduce and extend the term 'back-and-forth stomach' to refer to this type of GV.
