Malignant duodenal tumors are rare, often presenting with obstruction. Surgical resection, like the Whipple procedure, can offer long-term survival for some patients with duodenal cancer.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Oncology

Context:

  • Malignant duodenal tumors are uncommon.
  • Diagnosis often involves a delay of over a year.
  • Surgical resection is the primary treatment modality.

Purpose:

  • To analyze the characteristics and outcomes of patients with malignant duodenal tumors undergoing surgical radical resection.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of the Whipple procedure in managing these rare tumors.
  • To identify factors influencing survival in patients with duodenal malignancies.

Summary:

  • A retrospective study of 6 patients with malignant duodenal tumors treated with radical resection.
  • The most common symptom was duodenal obstruction, with a mean diagnostic delay of 15 months.
  • Adenocarcinoma was the most frequent histology; 2 patients achieved curative resection and long-term survival, while 2 had palliative outcomes, and 2 experienced operative mortality.

Impact:

  • Highlights the challenges in diagnosing primary duodenal carcinoma, emphasizing the need for high clinical suspicion.
  • Suggests that radical surgical resection, such as the Whipple procedure, can lead to long-term survival in select cases of duodenal cancer.
  • Provides insights into the outcomes of a small cohort, contributing to the understanding of this rare malignancy.
