Adenocarcinoma of Small Bowel

Small bowel cancer is one of the rarest cancers in the gastrointestinal tract. The diagnosis is usually late and most patients presented with the advanced stage. Because of this rarity, there is limited data when making decisions for treatment and biological behavior. Most forms of the cancer occur in the duodenum with surgery being the treatment of choice if the cancer is operable. Chemotherapy has an accepted role in duodenal cancer, with the best form being regimen, which yields the best result in combination with capecitabin and oxaliplatin. Our case patient was present with liver metastasis and a huge mass in her first duodenal region so we were required to use chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Like other duodenal cancers, the metastasis decreased her survival and she died about 13 months after diagnosis.
