Leptomeningeal carcinomatosis (LC) is a rare site of metastasis in solid tumors, and it is associated with poor prognosis due to disabling symptoms and a scarcity of treatment options. This condition is an uncommon entity in gastric cancer (GC). We present a case of primary LC manifestation in a patient with an incidental diagnosis of localized node-negative GC. We additionally perform a literature review and discuss the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. In conclusion, LC from GC represents a rare condition with a dramatic prognosis. Its diagnosis might be very challenging. A multidisciplinary approach appears to be the best strategy for the management of LC from GC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
