Abstract
The rate of perforation in gastric tumors has been reported to be between 0.5 and 3.9%. Because the tumor is not diagnosed at the moment, or the tumor's stage is unknown, repairing the perforation site is recommended rather than resection. The first thing that comes to mind as a repair method is omentoplasty, but other alternatives can be applied in cases where this is not possible. In our case report, we aimed to present gastric tumor perforation repair with a falciform ligament in a case of linitis plastica under chemotherapy accompanied by peritoneal carcinomatosis.
