Emergency laparoscopic surgery for respiratory failure caused by perforated peptic ulcer and severe scoliosis: A case report.

We report a case of a patient with severe scoliosis who developed respiratory failure from a perforated peptic ulcer and underwent emergency laparoscopic surgery.

Presentation Of Case: A 51-year-old man was transferred to the hospital by ambulance for sudden abdominal pain.
