Abstract
During a five-year-period 9 cases of duodenal carcinoma were treated. Eight of the patients were resected and 7 of them survived more than 5 years without signs of recurrent disease. Aggressive therapy, including radiotherapy and chemotherapy in cases with lymph node metastases, might in some way explain the good results. The importance of visualizing the infrapapillary region of the duodenum when performing upper endoscopy is stressed.
