Duodenal stump cancer after Billroth-II distal gastrectomy for gastric cancer
Gastric Cancer, 07/02/09

Lee J et al. - A 68-year-old man underwent Billroth II distal gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection for an advanced gastric cancer. At that time the tumor stage was T2bN3M0, with 44 of 78 retrieved lymph nodes showing metastasis. He was well without recurrence for 3 years; however, he visited hospital because of the abrupt onset of dizziness and tarry stool. A polypoid tumor that bled easily when touched was found at the end of the afferent loop of the duodenal stump by gastrofiberscopic examination, and it was proven to be an adenocarcinoma by endoscopic biopsy.
