| Abstract: | Menetrier's disease is an uncommon reason of hypertrophic gastropathy. The diagnosis is suspected when clinic, endoscopic and radiologic criteria are associated and is confirmed by histologic features which are a cryptric hyperplasia atrophy of gland of the fundus and an hypertrophy of the mucosa. The main complications of this disease are neoplasia and cachexia. The treatment of Menetrier's disease is first medical. Chirurgical treatment is indicated when bleeding or neoplasia occurred. In this paper, we report the case of patient who is 41 years old which, in spite of some therapeutic problems is in conformity with literature. |
