ABSTRACT

Background: gastric cancer is one of the main causes of death. In Cuba most of the cases are diagnosed in advanced stages clouding the outlook. The plastic linitis is a form of submucosal growth adenocarcinoma.
Objective: to provide medical lesson on endoscopic signs of suspicion and complementary use to diagnose it quickly.
Case Presentation: a patient referred epigastralgia, vomiting and weight loss. The stomach contrasted radiography showed stiffness and squarely defect in major and minor curvature. The esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed absence of peristalsis and stenosis of the light of the stomach. In the laparoscopic exam the tumor externalization was observed. The final diagnosis was carried out by macrobiopsy after surgery.
Conclusions: doctors have to suspect the disease in a patient with clinical suggestive features of tumor and endoscopic findings as decreased peristalsis and reduced organ light.
