| Abstract: | The authors report the first case to date of primary linitis plastica localised to the proximal part of the small bowel. A 44-year-old man with a one-month history of vague abdominal symptoms was treated for a proximal jejunum perforation due to a linitis plastica and died 2 months later. |
