Malignant duodenal tumors are rare and challenging to diagnose. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRT) aids in identifying these uncommon neoplasms before surgical resection, improving patient outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Oncology
  • Surgical Pathology

Background:

  • Malignant duodenal tumors are rare, posing diagnostic challenges and having an unknown prognosis.
  • Surgical resection is the primary treatment for duodenal malignancies.
  • Extranodal lymphomas, such as MALT lymphoma, can occur in the duodenum.

Observation:

  • A 65-year-old patient presented with anemia and epigastric discomfort, with a history of Helicobacter pylori-associated gastric ulceration.
  • Endoscopy revealed duodenal ulceration, but biopsies were inconclusive for malignancy or H. pylori.
  • Magnetic resonance tomography (MRT) identified a circular intramural duodenal tumor infiltrating the pancreatic head.

Findings:

  • The patient underwent a Whipple procedure for a large duodenal tumor adherent to the pancreatic head.

  • The case highlights the diagnostic difficulties associated with uncommon neoplasms in the duodenopancreatic region.
  • Primary extranodal MALT lymphoma of the duodenum was diagnosed.

    • Implications:

    • This case underscores the importance of advanced imaging like MRT in diagnosing rare duodenal neoplasms.
    • Accurate preoperative diagnosis is crucial for appropriate surgical planning and treatment of duodenopancreatic masses.
    • Increased awareness of rare duodenal lymphoproliferative disorders is necessary for timely diagnosis and management.
