A 45-year-old man was found unconscious on the sidewalk and brought to the Emergency Department. He could not provide anamnestic information, but the hospital electronic archive revealed he was homeless and had a history of excessive alcohol consumption (250–300 g daily intake). He suffered from depressive disorder and had attempted suicide 9 years before by caustic ingestion, which led to total gastrectomy and esophagojejunal anastomosis. Physical examination revealed a Glasgow Coma Scale score of 8 with no focal neurological signs.
