A ruptured or perforated viscus was first shown in 1990, many years after the veteran's separation from service and is not shown to be related to an injury in service.
A viscus is "[a]ny large interior organ in any one of the three great cavities of the body, especially in the abdomen." Id. at 1696.
The earliest medical diagnosis of a perforated viscus was reported when the veteran was admitted to a VA hospital on January [redacted], 1990, the day before he died.

 eMedicine - Pneumoperitoneum : Article by Ali Nawaz Khan, MBBS, LRCP, FRCS, FRCP, FRCR   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
The most common cause is a perforated abdominal viscus, generally a perforated ulcer, although any part of the bowel may perforate from a benign ulcer, tumor, or trauma.
Infection of the peritoneal cavity with gas-forming organisms and/or rupture of an adjacent abscess
In a perforated abdominal viscus, mortality and morbidity depend on the degree of peritoneal contamination, the development of localized or generalized peritonitis, and the interval between presentation and surgery.

 Section 7 Chapter 7 Injuries to the Stomach, Small Bowel, Colon, and Rectum
The diagnosis of hollow viscus injury remains a challenge in abdominal trauma patients, and subsequent evaluation is determined by the mechanism of injury.
Ultrasonography does not, however, reliably distinguish solid-organ injury from hollow viscus injury—a distinction that is critical for determining subsequent management (i.e., operative versus nonoperative) in a hemodynamically stable patient.
No further diagnostic workup of hollow viscus injury is performed, and the duration of the observation period depends on the reliability of the clinical examination.

 Visceral Pain Mechanisms
Lennander (24) and MacKenzie (28) maintained that pain was not derived directly from a viscus (see discussion in ref. (25)), whereas others provided evidence for what they called ``true visceral pain'' or ``splanchnic pain'' ((43); discussion in ref. (25)).
That these convergent, cutaneous receptive fields expand in size after repetitive distention of a viscus unquestionably implicates one or more central mechanisms, because there is no convincing evidence for the existence of a large number of bifurcating or dichotomizing neurons that simultaneously innervate a cutaneous structure and a viscus.
Often not considered are possible functions of visceral afferents associated with local, trophic modulation of a viscus (31).

 The Acute Abdomen
The sudden severe onset of pain suggests a ruptured viscus and the rapid development of shock suggests massive hemorrhage which may flood the peritoneal cavity and cause generalized peritoneal irritation.
Priority I indicates catastrophic events, such as perforation of a viscus, massive hemorrhage, sudden arterial occlusion with extensive tissue necrosis, all of which are characterized by sudden onset of severe prostating continuous pain, moderate to extreme abdominal tenderness and muscle spasm, and rapid development of shock.
Emergency operation as soon as the patient's condition permits must be done to repair a perforated viscus, to restore blood supply by relief of strangulation- obstruction, or to control hemorrhage in a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, ruptured spleen and (hopefully when conditions permit) a dissecting aneurysm.

Further complicating the diagnosis is the young child's relative inability to communicate and his/her inability to evaluate the abstract concept of pain.
Hollow viscus pain such as that of an the obstructed ureter, intestine, and gallbladder is colicky or spasmodic in nature.
It coincides with the peristaltic waves of the organ as it attempts to overcome the distal obstruction such as ureteral or cystic duct stone or a fecal bolus in constipation.

 The Physician and Sportsmedicine: Isolated Jejunal Rupture After Blunt Trauma
In Brief: Jejunal ruptures and other hollow viscus injuries are relatively uncommon manifestations of blunt abdominal injury that can often be masked by more serious injuries, such as solid-organ ruptures.
The abdomen is largely unprotected in most contact sports, and significant injury can occur when the lower ribs and contracted back or abdominal muscles are unable to prevent the transmission of blunt force to the visceral organs.

The word viscera, the plural of viscus, refers to the soft internal organs of the body, especially those contained within the abdominal and thoracic cavities (American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, Houghton Mifflin, 1996 p.1996), such as the heart, liver, and stomach.
The plural form, viscera, is used much more frequently than the singular form, viscus, which is quite rare.
Mark Multach, Chief of the Division of General Medicine at the University of Miami, says this about viscus: "Viscus is rarely used other than to refer to the bowel (hollow viscus).
