Cyclic vomiting syndrome in adults

Abstract Cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) was initially described in children but can occur in all age groups. Cyclic vomiting syndrome is increasingly recognized in adults. However, the lack of awareness of CVS in adults has led to small numbers of diagnosed patients and a paucity of published data on the causes, diagnosis and management of CVS in adults. This article is a state‐of‐knowledge overview on CVS in adults and is intended to provide a framework for management and further investigations into CVS in adults.
