Abstract

Plastic linitis of the stomach is a pathological entity reported for several centuries. Your prognosis is worse than other forms of gastric cancer. In order to present a case, where preliminary investigations were not conclusive for the definitive diagnosis of this rare entity, the present study was carried out. Concluding that Plastic linitis requires high endoscopic suspicion and a combination of several diagnostic techniques for its detection, including endoscopic ultrasound.
