Medical / pelvic abdominal CT
Spanish term or phrase: curvadura menor gástrica
carry on from my last q.

En la cavidad abdominal se aprecian implantes peritoneales en región subfrénica anterior izquierda, en relación con curvadura menor gástrica, lateral al bazo, correspondiendo ésta a la lesión de mayor tamaño.

Sorry, but I don't understand a thing. Is this a 'lesser' gastric curve, or has the gastric curve been reduced in some way.

Thanks again, MJ
