Objetivo:  presentar el caso de un paciente con linitis plástica gástrica cuya evaluación inicial no fue concluyente para diagnóstico.  Presentación del caso:  paciente masculino de 51 años de edad que presenta dolor abdominal en epigastrio, vómitos, pérdida de peso y decaimiento. Se realiza estudios analíticos que concluyen linitis plástica gástrica difusa con posible carcinosis peritoneal.  Conclusiones:  la linitis plástica gástrica es una enfermedad infrecuente con alta morbi-mortalidad y que requiere en algunos casos de estudios especiales como el ultrasonido endoscópico en los pacientes con alta sospecha diagnóstica.]]></p></abstract>

Objective:  to present the case of a patient with gastric plastic linitis whose initial evaluation was inconclusive for diagnosis.  Case report:  a 51-year-old male patient presented with abdominal pain in the epigastrium, vomiting, weight loss and decay. Analytical studies are performed and they conclude diffuse gastric plastic linitis with possible peritoneal carcinosis.  Conclusions:  gastric plastic linitis is an infrequent disease with high morbidity and mortality and in some cases requires special studies such as endoscopic ultrasound in patients with high diagnostic suspicion.]]></p></abstract>
