    Abstract:
    An 83-year-old man visited our hospital for vomiting. Chest-abdominal computed tomography(CT)revealed that a tumor whose inside was imaged in the jejunum about 15 cm after leaving the Treitz ligament was pointed out, and dilation of the oral intestinal tract of the tumor was observed. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy showed a type 3 circumferential tumor at the jejunum. He was diagnosed with obstructive ileus due to jejunal cancer. Laparoscopic-assisted partial jejunal resection was performed. Although the patient was followed up without chemotherapy, CT showed multiple lung and liver metastases and a mass lesion was found in the right entire chest, and a biopsy revealed skin metastasis 6 months after the operation. The patient is being followed up 10 months after surgery, there is no progression of liver, lung, and skin metastasis.
