Gastric cancer is an uncommon occurrence in pregnancy, but its prognosis is grim. The co-occurrence of these two symptoms makes it almost impossible for one to suspect a diagnosis of gastric cancer in a pregnant woman. Herein, we present the case of a pregnant patient, diagnosed with gastric cancer at a gestational age of 24 weeks.

We report a rare case of gastric cancer in pregnancy. A 26-year-old woman presented at the 20th week of pregnancy complaining of nausea and vomiting. Although the patient considered the condition to be related with pregnancy and underestimated its importance, her complaints persisted over the following weeks and she was hospitalized for investigation. The diagnostic workup revealed a metastatic gastric cancer. Gastric cancer is very rare in pregnancy, and therefore it may be left out of differential diagnosis by physicians. Diagnosis may be further delayed because of overlapping symptoms occurring during normal pregnancy (nausea, vomiting, and fatigue). All these factors may contribute to a very high mortality of this malignancy during pregnancy.
