ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Sister Mary Joseph's nodule is an umbilical nodule found in patients with metastatic abdominal cancers. It is quite rare finding and needs a high index of suspicion for diagnosis. Detection of Sister Mary Joseph's nodule should warrant widespread search for abdominal carcinoma and it universally carries quite poor clinical prognosis. Here, we describe the case of a 28-year-old patient who presented with Sister Mary Joseph's Nodule and was found to have metastatic signet ring cell gastric carcinoma on investigation. A brief discussion about this rare condition is also presented.
