Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Duodenal tumors are rare, encompassing both benign and malignant conditions.
  • Early diagnosis and appropriate surgical management are crucial for patient outcomes.
  • This report details clinical presentations and surgical approaches for a small cohort.

Observation:

  • Three benign duodenal tumors (two adenomatous polyps, one lipoma) were surgically resected via duodenotomy.
  • One polyp exhibited dysplasia, indicating premalignant potential.
  • A single case of duodenal cancer in a patient with a history of gastric resection was treated with the Whipple procedure.

Findings:

  • Benign tumors were successfully removed, with one requiring associated sphincteroplasty.
  • The patient with duodenal cancer experienced a fatal myocardial infarction on the 11th postoperative day due to advanced age and comorbidities.
  • This highlights the challenges in managing duodenal cancer in elderly and comorbid patients.

Implications:

  • Timely surgical intervention for benign duodenal tumors can lead to favorable outcomes.
  • Malignant duodenal tumors, particularly in elderly patients, present significant management challenges and risks.
  • Further research into optimal treatment strategies for duodenal neoplasms is warranted.
