Summary

Primary duodenal adenocarcinoma is rare, causing diagnostic and treatment delays. Early suspicion, even with mild symptoms like nausea and anemia, is crucial for timely intervention in this uncommon cancer.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Primary adenocarcinoma of the duodenum is an exceptionally rare malignancy.
  • Its infrequency presents significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges.

Observation:

  • A case study of a 70-year-old male with primary adenocarcinoma in the fourth duodenal segment is presented.
  • The patient experienced delayed diagnosis and treatment, including an inappropriate initial surgical procedure.

Findings:

  • The patient presented with subtle symptoms of nausea and anemia, highlighting the need for high clinical suspicion.
  • Diagnostic modalities include endoscopic examination for the oral duodenum and double-contrast studies for the aboral segment.

Implications:

  • Delayed diagnosis and treatment in rare duodenal cancers can lead to poor outcomes, as exemplified by the patient's postoperative complications and death.
  • Optimal treatment involves duodenopancreatectomy for proximal tumors and segmental resection for distal duodenal adenocarcinoma.
