Menetrier's disease represents a low prevalence clinical entity, characterized by complexity in its diagnosis, particularly due to the need to exclude its potential association with gastric cancer.

During the upper endoscopy procedure, a noticeable thickening of gastric folds was observed, associated with multiple polypoid lesions in the stomach, predominantly in the fundus and body.

This is the case of a 52-year-old Indian lady who presented with hematemesis, severe anemia, and an abdominal lump in cardiac failure. On radiographic evaluation, the lesion appeared to be gross circumferential asymmetric proximal gastric wall thickening, with suspicion of gastric lymphoma or tubercular hypertrophic gastritis. After stabilization with multiple transfusions, she underwent proximal D2 gastrectomy with esophago-gastric anastomosis and a total splenectomy.
