One case of primary linitis plastica of the rectum is presented, it is a rare entity presentation in younger patients. The diagnosis was made by excluding the stomach as a primary source by peroperative palpation and fibroscopy examination. Because of potential for local invasion and infiltration, linitis is often detected only at the equivalent of stage C (Astler-Cller). The prognosis is poor, the mean survival time is about 9 months.
