Case description

Gastric Cancer (scirrhous gastric carcinoma) has a poor
prognosis due to delay in diagnosis. Pathological feature
of this tumor is diffuse fibrosis of the gastric wall.

Detection of small fibrotic lesion in the gastric wall would
contribute to early diagnosis of linitis plastica, since the
primary lesion usually lacks remarkable protrusion or
ulceration.
