A fatal case of acute phlegmonous gastritis in a 30 year old man is reported. It was caused by Group A Streptococcus (M type 1, T type 1). Although extremely rare, clinicians need to be aware of this condition as, without intervention, it is rapidly fatal. The recommended treatment is antibiotics combined with surgical resection.
