The Whipple procedure offers a curative option for duodenal carcinoma, even with lymph node involvement. Early diagnosis of this rare cancer is crucial for better outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Duodenal carcinoma is a rare malignancy with nonspecific symptoms, often leading to delayed diagnosis.
  • Optimal treatment strategies for duodenal cancer require careful consideration of surgical approaches and patient outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the long-term experience with duodenal carcinoma.
  • To determine the most effective treatment for duodenal cancer.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective case series of 24 patients with duodenal carcinoma treated over 15 years.
  • Surgical interventions included radical pancreaticoduodenectomy (Whipple procedure), bypass operations, and segmental resections.
  • Tumor staging and patient survival were the primary outcome measures.

Main Results:

  • The Whipple procedure was performed in 15 patients, with 9 of 14 survivors remaining disease-free for over 5 years, including those with positive lymph nodes.
  • Bypass and segmental resections resulted in mortality from cancer for all patients.
  • Postoperative mortality was low for both bypass and Whipple procedures.

Conclusions:

  • The Whipple procedure can be curative for duodenal adenocarcinoma, even in cases with lymph node metastasis.
  • Delayed diagnosis is common due to nonspecific symptoms.
  • The efficacy of segmental resection for distal duodenal tumors remains uncertain.
