ABSTRACT
Background: duodenal carcinoid tumor is rare; it represents 2 % of gastrointestinal neuroendocrine tumors. Therefore, a case of this is presented, recently diagnosed at the Joaquín Albarrán Clinical Surgical Hospital in Havana.Objective: to report a case of carcinoid tumor of the duodenum and review the literature with emphasis on the histopathological diagnosis.
Clinical case: 86-year-old male patient who died on the fifth day after admission. At autopsy, during the macroscopic examination of the intestines, a lesion was revealed at the level of the first portion of the duodenum which, due to its histopathology, corresponded to a carcinoid tumor of the duodenum.
Conclusions: duodenal carcinoid is a rare tumor whose endoscopic or histological diagnosis is made incidentally in the vast majority of cases; it is generally associated with a benign progression, although endoscopic removal of tumors smaller than 1 cm without periampullary location or evidence of invasion of the muscular layer is recommended, evaluated by histology or endoscopic ultrasound.
