Gastrointestinal endoscopic examination and Computed tomography. a. A gastrointestinal endoscopic examination was performed and disclosed an ulcerated lesion in the lesser curvature of the gastric corpus located at 7 cm from the esophagogastric junction, which squashed and isolated the gastric folds from the rest of the stomach. b.

Computed tomography (CT) revealed thickening of the gastric wall and findings indicative of abdominal wall invasion.
