    Abstract:
    A 85-year-old man was admitted due to vomiting. Abdominal CT showed the remarkable expansion of the stomach and the stenotic lesion in the third portion of the duodenum. Duodenal endoscopy showed a circular tumor of the third potion of the duodenum, and biopsy disclosed tubular adenocarcinoma. Operation was performed on the basis of a diagnosis of primary duodenal cancer of the third portion. Liver metastasis, peritoneal dissemination, and apparent lymph node enlargement were not observed. The tumor was present in the third portion of the duodenum and partial duodenectomy was performed. Reconstruction was achieved by side to side anastomosis of the duodenum and the jejunum. Histopathological diagnosis was well differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma, SS, ly1, v1. Primary duodenal cancer is a relatively rare disease, and there are few cases of third portion. If pancreatic invasion and lymph node metastasis are not observed as in this case, it is necessary to examine the indication of partial duodenectomy.
