feedback3="'''Correct!''' Fluid therapy and gastric decompression will stabilize the animal. Gastric decompression must be carried out as soon as possible as gastric dilatation can cause caudal vena cava obstruction and impair venous return to the heart.

feedback5="'''Correct!''' Biopsy of the stomach followed by histological examination should always be performed and is mandatory for definitive diagnosis.
