Abstract:
A 72-year-old-female presented intermittent retrosternal pain, heartburn and dysphagia. Computerized CT-Scan showed a large mass with a cross-sectional diameter of 5 cm at the lateral side of part II of the duodenum. The preoperative histology was unclear. The tumour was successfully removed by laparoscopic approach.
