  • Title: Villous adenocarcinoma arising in the bypassed duodenum 18 years after a Billroth II subtotal gastrectomy: report of a case and review of the literature.
    Author: Lipper S, Graves GV.
    Journal: Am J Gastroenterol; 1985 Mar; 80(3):174-6. PubMed ID: 3976635.
    Abstract:
    Eighteen years after a Billroth II procedure for a duodenal ulcer, a 65-year-old man presented with a large epigastric mass which was clinically interpreted as a pancreatic carcinoma. Fourteen months later, reevaluation of the enlarging mass led to a diagnosis of a villous tumor of the afferent limb of the gastroenterostomy. Laparotomy revealed an advanced villous adenocarcinoma. We could find only one other similar case in a 50-year literature review.
