French term or phrase: OGO
I am having trouble translating the expression OGO. It appears in a medical file, if it helps any, the patient has anoxic encephalopathy.
contexte:
Retirait les 2 membres à la stimulation. Double signe de Babinski. Mallory Weiss à l'O.G.O.

I have already recieved an answer, but it did not answer my question. My problem concerns the term O.G.O.
Thanks for your help.
