This case report describes a 76-year-old woman with progressive anorexia, weight loss, and heartburn, aiming to investigate the underlying cause of her symptoms and abnormal laboratory findings, including severe hypoalbuminemia and elevated d-dimer levels. The authors utilized contrast-enhanced CT and PET/CT imaging to further evaluate the presence of an abdominal mass and potential malignancy. The case highlights the diagnostic challenges in elderly patients presenting with nonspecific gastrointestinal symptoms.
