  • Title: [Primary adenocarcinoma of the duodenum: a clinical case and review of the literature].
    Author: Zuccarotto D, Rodighiero D, Fusato G, Vidali M, Lorenzin L.
    Journal: G Chir; 1992 May; 13(5):299-302. PubMed ID: 1284917.
    Abstract:
    A case of primary duodenal adenocarcinoma recently observed gives the Authors the chance to review the literature. Diagnosis is often delayed because symptomatology is usually vague and non specific, a fact that is even more in contrast with diagnostic techniques, which, on the contrary, are handy and easily performed (endoscopy, duodenography). Surgical resection is the only proposable treatment while no local and distant diffusion has yet showed, otherwise the operation is limited to a digestive and/or biliary derivation. Anyhow, prognosis remains severe.
