BRCA2 and gastric linitis plastica: This case involves a patient with a pathogenic <i>BRCA2</i> mutation diagnosed with linitis plastica, a diffuse form of GC characterized by stiffening of the gastric lining, akin to a "leather bottle." This case highlights the importance of further research to elucidate the connection between GC and <i>BRCA2</i> mutations, which may lead to expanded surveillance guidelines for affected individuals.
