R0 resection of linitis plastica of the stomach with synchronous bilateral Krukenberg tumours in a young woman.

We report a case of linitis plastica (LP) with synchronous bilateral Krukenberg Tumours in a young woman, which could be resected fully. Such a case is rarely reported because of rarity (LP), dismal prognosis (LP and Krukenberg Tumours), nonresectability due to peritoneal spread at presentation, and lack of clear treatment protocols (LP and Krukenberg Tumours). This case report suggests that LP, with Krukenberg Tumours, can achieve complete resection in a select subset of cases; this may improve survival.
