RESUMEN
Menetrier's disease represents a low prevalence clinical entity, characterized by complexity in its diagnosis, particularly due to the need to exclude its potential association with gastric cancer. In this context, we present the clinical case of a 54-year-old male with nonspecific gastrointestinal symptoms and hypoalbuminemia. During the upper endoscopy procedure, a noticeable thickening of gastric folds was observed, associated with multiple polypoid lesions in the stomach, predominantly in the fundus and body. Since the patient did not show improvement in symptoms and given the inability to rule out gastric cancer, total gastrectomy was chosen as the treatment. Surgical specimen and histology confirmed the presence of Menetrier's disease.
