* ''Fanfic/SnowBlind'': A variant. Donatello gets stabbed in the side (the stabber was aiming for the stomach but Donnie's plastron deflected it), and it's treated like this, as he's bleeding heavily and is still in pain even after being stitched up and spending two days in bed.

* In the ''Series/{{CSINY}}'' episode "Communication Breakdown", a (fictional tribe) Native American perpetrator kills his victim (who's a member of the same tribe) by slipping a small weapon designed for killing wolves into an oyster on the man's room service tray. The barbed object is folded and secured with a tie that dissolves in stomach acid. When it's gone, the object opens up and causes severe damage to the intestines.

* In ''VideoGame/TheSecretWorld,'' Illuminati handler [[MeanBoss Kirsten Geary]] can be heard speaking to one of her agents over the phone in one scene: apparently, the guy's just been shot in the stomach and is in agony, while Geary is [[LackOfEmpathy admonishing him for crying]], irritably reassuring him that he won't die for several hours. As she puts it "it's a total drag."
* At the start of the first ''VideoGame/SpaceQuest'' game, the Sariens have slaughtered almost everyone on the starlab ''Arcada'' by laser blast to the stomach, and one of the head scientists only lasts long enough to give Roger Wilco a clue to a data cartridge, before he too succumbs to this trope. For bonus points, the VGA remake allows Roger to smell and taste these corpses if the player desires.

** This is how Nicky Cavella goes out after he makes the mistake of digging up Frank Castle's family and pissing on their remains. Castle was not happy about this asshole doing this, and did not want to make his end a quick one, leaving him in the wilderness to die of infection or blood loss after gut-shooting him.
** Later, Frank kills an Eastern European gangster by drugging him, cutting a hole in his stomach and draping his intestines around a tree.

him. He's found about a week later, with birds having eaten the eyes from his corpse.
** Later, Frank kills an Eastern European gangster by drugging him, cutting a hole in his stomach and draping his intestines around a tree. This was less about giving him a painful death, and more because said gangster was a veteran of the Yugoslav wars, and Frank had to pull out all the stops from the start to even have a chance of getting any information out of the guy, as the usual methods of ColdBloodedTorture Frank normally uses on criminals would be like tickling him with a feather. It still only barely works, and the gangster calls Frank a coward the entire time.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Archer}}'': Strangely averted in the season 7 finale, after Archer is shot in the stomach by Veronica Deane. He's clutching his bleeding gut wound, but only seems to be in moderate pain, and can otherwise move and talk just fine. [[spoiler: This is because he's actually one of Krieger's robot copies that Archer activated to help him earlier in the episode, and the REAL Archer is the man currently bleeding out face down in the pool. The injury and resulting brain damage leaves him in a coma for three years.]]

** Downplayed in ''VideoGame/LikeADragonGaidenTheManWhoErasedHisName''. [[spoiler:Just before Masaru Watase goes to Omi HQ to read the declaration of dissolution for the Tojo Clan and Omi Alliance, he takes a knife to the gut courtesy of [[PsychoSupporter Homare Nishitani III]]. He lives, but Watase says it's the worst pain he's ever felt; hence why he didn't fight to defend himself after reading the declaration in ''[=Y:LaD=]''.]]

* In ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire,'' [[AdiposeRex King Robert Baratheon]] ends his reign by getting gored in the stomach by a boar during a drunken hunting trip; he's left in so much pain that he can barely issue his final orders. Needless to say, he's mercifully anesthetized once he's finished, and remains unconscious until he finally expires the next day.

** [[TheBrute Gregor Clegane]] suffers a similar one, impaled through the stomach by Oberyn Martell's spear. Unfortunately for him, his freakish durability keeps him alive for weeks as the Maesters unsuccessfully try to treat it; unable to even take painkillers due to his tolerance for them.

* ''VideoGame/LikeADragon'':
** ''VideoGame/YakuzaLikeADragon''; [[spoiler: Tendo shoots Arakawa in the gut when he double crosses him, making sure he has a long, drawn out death so Tendo can smugly gloat over Arakawa in his final moments]].
** ''VideoGame/LikeADragonIshin''; Takeda shoots Todo in the stomach when he spots the latter plotting against the faction they are both a part of. While time isn't really consistent in the ''Like A Dragon'' games, it still takes Todo a long time to bleed out from his injury, long enough for Ryoma to track down and kill Takeda in retribution.
* In ''VideoGame/Persona2'', [[spoiler: Maya dies from this, at least in Innocent Sin. In Eternal Punishment, she gets a stomach pain and wound from running into Tatsuya in the real world; and thus part of the events of the game is to prevent the new timeline from becoming the old timeline, which if it happens, kills Maya all over again as the wound and pain from her chest is actually from the spear that pierced Christ in Innocent Sin.]]
