[Duodenal cancer. A clinical-pathological study].

    Summary

    This study reviewed seven duodenal carcinoma cases, finding radical resection challenging due to late diagnosis. Improved endoscopic techniques offer hope for earlier detection of these rare duodenal cancers.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Surgical Oncology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Primary duodenal carcinomas are rare gastrointestinal malignancies.
    • Early symptoms often non-specific, leading to delayed diagnosis and treatment.
    • Surgical resection, typically duodeno-pancreatectomy, is the primary curative treatment.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze clinical characteristics, treatment outcomes, and diagnostic challenges of primary duodenal carcinomas.
    • To evaluate the impact of diagnostic advancements on early detection rates.
    • To assess recurrence patterns and survival following radical resection.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of seven primary duodenal carcinoma cases treated between 1973-1976.
    • Analysis of patient demographics, presenting symptoms, diagnostic methods, surgical procedures, and histopathological findings.
    • Evaluation of post-operative outcomes, including recurrence, complications, and survival.

    Main Results:

    • Seven cases (4 female, 3 male, age 32-69) of primary duodenal carcinoma were identified.
    • Average delay from symptom onset to surgery (duodeno-pancreatectomy) was four months.
    • All tumors were radically resected macroscopically and histologically.
    • Local tumor recurrences led to fatal outcomes in five patients within 9-21 months.
    • Other causes of mortality included peritonitis and pancreatitis.

    Conclusions:

    • Despite radical resection, local recurrence is a significant cause of mortality in duodenal carcinoma.
    • Advancements in diagnostic imaging, particularly endoscopy and ERCP, are crucial for earlier detection.
    • Routine inclusion of the duodenum in gastroscopy may improve early diagnosis rates for duodenal cancers.
