Title: Carcinoid tumors of the duodenum: report of three cases treated by endoscopic resection. Author: Yamamoto C, Aoyagi K, Suekane H, Iida M, Hizawa K, Kuwano Y, Nakamura S, Fujishima M. Journal: Endoscopy; 1997 Mar; 29(3):218-21. PubMed ID: 9201476. Abstract: Three patients with small (less than 1 cm) duodenal carcinoid tumors are described, two of whom underwent endoscopic resection using simple snare polypectomy. In the third patient, a small tumor (5 mm) could no longer be found after initial biopsies on subsequent repeated endoscopic-bioptic follow-up. All three patients are free of local recurrence or systemic symptoms 2-14 years after the procedure.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
