Abstract
We present the case of a 39-year-old woman with epigastralgia, hypermesis and severe weight loss of 6 month´s evolution. Laboratory tests, upper endoscopy, colonoscopy together with inconclusive imaging techniques were performed. Finally exploratory laparotomy was carried out, revealing intestinal obstruction secondary to jejunum tumor. The pathological analysis of the surgical specimen confirmed the diagnosis of invasive jejunal adenocarcinoma.
