Clinical and Radiological Features of Menetrier's Disease: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

We present a case report describing the diagnosis and management of a patient who presents with a rare diagnosis of Menetrier's disease. This condition poses a diagnostic challenge to clinicians due to its nonspecific clinical presentation and is oftentimes misdiagnosed for more common gastric disorders. Menetrier's disease is characterized by gastric mucosal hypertrophy and subsequent protein loss, resulting in gastric symptoms and widespread edema. While the etiology remains unclear, notable associations have been observed with () infection and overexpression of transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-a). The management often involves supportive measures with medical and surgical interventions for refractory cases and when necessary. This report includes a comprehensive review of the literature on the clinical presentation, diagnostic approach, and management of this rare disease. By documenting such cases in the medical literature, we aim to enhance the clinician's ability to recognize and manage this disorder, thereby preventing the development of more severe manifestations such as gastric carcinoma.
