duodenal neoplasms/吐き気

BACKGROUND Periampullary carcinomas are rare and constitute a special entity, as diagnosed earlier and having a better prognosis than other duodenal tumors. METHODS In the present study, we retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 16 patients with periampullary carcinomas over 10

Tumors of the duodenum are relatively rare, accounting for about 1-2% of all gastrointestinal neoplasms. Nevertheless diagnosis and therapy are important, as 50% of all duodenal neoplasms are malignant. In the period 1987-1992 we treated 14 patients with duodenal neoplasms (11 men, 3 women, age

A 55-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of nausea and vomiting. An endoscopic examination and computed tomography(CT)scan revealed a duodenal tumor. A biopsy confirmed a diagnosis of primary duodenal adenocarcinoma. A pancreaticoduodenectomy and partial resection of the ascending

UNASSIGNED Duodenal metastasis of testicular cancer is an uncommon condition in clinical practice. Here, we have reported a case of this nature. UNASSIGNED Testicular cancers are among the most seen cancer types among young men. Metastasis of testicular cancer generally occurs through hematogenous

CONCLUSIONS Malignant tumors of the small bowel are unusual and account for only 1% to 5% of all gastrointestinal tract malignancies. Thirteen cases of malignant tumors of the small bowel identified at the VAMC in Puerto Rico from January 1999 to September 2001 and a review of the literature are

Combination protocols of 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin (5-FU/LV) plus irinotecan or oxaliplatin have demonstrated high activity in metastatic colorectal cancer. Capecitabine, an oral 5-FU prodrug, may replace infusional 5-FU/LV in combination protocols with irinotecan or oxaliplatin. We therefore

OBJECTIVE This study was designed to evaluate the effects of preoperative chemoradiation on resectability, response, local control, and survival in patients with local or local-regional involvement from carcinoma of the pancreas or cancer of the duodenum and to assess the associated toxicity of such

BACKGROUND Brunner's gland adenoma (BGA) is a rare benign duodenal tumour proliferating from Brunner's glands. Here, we present a giant BGA leading to anaemia, with its clinical, endoscopic, radiological, surgical and pathological findings. METHODS A 48-year-old Turkish man complained of a six

A case of primary duodenal carcinoma simultaneously associated with an early gastric cancer is reported. A 72-year-old woman complaining of appetite loss and nausea was admitted in June 1988. Endoscopic examination showed an ulcerative lesion in the angle of the stomach and a Borrmann type 2 tumor

BACKGROUND The rarity, delayed presentation, and diagnostic difficulty of small-bowel tumors prompted this study. METHODS Charts were reviewed retrospectively for 85 patients with 89 small-bowel tumors (22 primary malignant, 23 primary benign, and 44 metastatic) over a 10-year period (1986-1996) at
