Abstract

We report on a 25 year-old pregnant woman who was twice hospitalized at the Obstetrical Service of San Vicente de Paul University Hospital, In Medellin, Colombia. She posed serious diagnostic difficulties during her two admissions and died, undiagnosed, during the last one. Postmortem study revealed diffuse carcinomatosis with central nervous system Involvement, originating in a gastric adenocarcinoma.
