Primary rectal linitis plastica: Report of two cases and a review of the literature

Abstract

Primary rectal linitis is a rare tumor which mostly affects young patients. The definite diagnosis is based on the histologic examination of deep biopsy samples. It is mostly diagnosed in advanced stages, which worsens the prognosis. In this report, two cases of primary rectal linitis plastica will be presented and discussed in light of the literature.
