Resumen

Presentamos el caso de una paciente de 48 años de edad, con una metástasis gástrica de un cáncer lobular de mama intervenido hacía 8 años, tras permanecer libre de enfermedad hasta el momento actual. Los síntomas que presentaba eran totalmente inespecíficos y, las técnicas diagnósticas de imagen realizadas fueron compatibles con el diagnóstico de linitis plástica. Los hallazgos histológicos de la biopsia y el estudio de los receptores hormonales, confirmaron el diagnóstico de metástasis gástrica del cáncer de mama primario tras un estudio comparativo con la pieza quirúrgica inicial. Tras iniciar tratamiento hormonal y citostático la paciente presentó una mejoría parcial de su sintomatología, con una supervivencia que supera los 10 meses. Las metástasis gástricas del carcinoma lobular no son tan infrecuentes como se creía, y su diagnóstico requiere un alto índice de sospecha dada la inespecificidad de la sintomatología con que suelen presentarse.

We present the case of a woman of 48 years old, with a gastric metastases from breast lobular carcinoma that was operated eight years ago, being free of illness until today. The symptoms who presented her were totally inespecific and the diagnostic techniques of image realized were compatible with the diagnostic of plastic linitis. The histological findings of biopsy and hormonals receptors study confirmed the diagnostic of gastric metastases of primary breast carcinoma after a comparative study with the initial surgical piece. After starting hormonal and cistostatic treatment, the patient presented a partial improvement of her symptomatology with a survival that exceeds ten months. The gastric metastases of lobular carcinoma are not so infrequent as it was believed, and its diagnostic require a high index of suspicion, given the inespecifity of symptomatology that it used to present.
