Abdominal Pain In Kamogawa

A 34 YO male presents with severe abdominal pain 6 hours after eating a sushi meal with his family. Endoscopy findings are shown at left.

Questions:

1. What was the type of sushi eaten?
2. What is the antimicrobial treatment of choice?
3. Is recurrence more or less likely after an episode of infection?
