    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Surgical Oncology

    Background:

    • Subtotal gastrectomy is a common procedure for various gastric conditions.
    • Duodenal stump complications, though rare, can occur post-gastrectomy.

    Observation:

    • An 84-year-old female patient presented with symptoms suggestive of biliary obstruction.
    • The patient had a history of subtotal gastrectomy nine years prior to presentation.

    Findings:

    • A rare polypoid tumor was identified in the duodenal stump.
    • The duodenal stump tumor is a potential cause of extrahepatic biliary obstruction.

    Implications:

    • Early detection and surgical management of duodenal stump tumors are crucial.
    • This case highlights the importance of considering rare post-gastrectomy complications in elderly patients.
