Abstract:
The early duodenal carcinoma is a very rare type of neoplasia, usually asymptomatic, its surgical treatment remains a controverse issue. In the present case an early duodenal carcinoma was incidentally found at the pathological specimen after a gastrectomy with BII reconstruction for a gastric adenoma unressectable by endoscopy. The patient is now alive for two years, without evidence of recurrence on follow-up.
