Introduction & Objective: Early detection plays a vital role in improving the outcomes of patients with gastric cancer. However, identifying the disease during its early stages is challenging due to the lack of specific symptoms. Presentation of Case: This case report presents a patient with gastric cancer and liver metastasis who remained asymptomatic despite the advanced disease. The patient initially presented with acute abdominal right upper quadrant pain, leading to various diagnostic investigations, including ultrasound, CT scan, MRI, and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. The imaging and pathological findings confirmed the presence of a metastatic liver mass and a large fungating mass in the stomach with the pathology of an adenocarcinoma after endoscopic biopsy. Surgical intervention was avoided due to distant metastasis. The patient underwent FOLFOX (folinic acid, fluorouracil and oxaliplatin) chemotherapy regimen. Results: This case highlights the importance of considering gastric cancer in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with unexplained abdominal pain without typical symptoms. Conclusions: A multidisciplinary approach involving various medical specialties is necessary to ensure early diagnosis and appropriate treatment for metastatic gastric cancer.
