[Linitis plastica of the proximal part of the duodeno-jejunal angle. Apropos of a case].
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.
