Title: [Pulmonary metastasis from Vater's ampullomas]. Author: Germouty J, Bonnaud F, Gay G. Journal: Sem Hop; 1976 Feb 09; 52(6):357-61. PubMed ID: 185716. Abstract: The authors report two cases of carcinoma of the ampulla of Vater with numerous pulmonary metastases. This carcinoma is a malignant tumour with a very poor short-term prognosis. This tumour develops at the expense of the ampulla of Vater and may give rise to numerous pulmonary metastases and carcinomato,s lymphangitis. Authors are not unanimous concerning the course and prognosis of these tumours. In fact, one may note two tendencies, one optimistic, which seems to us erroneous, the other pessimistic, which we share.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
