Abstract
Objective To evaluate the preoperative diagnostic procedures and treatment choice of primary tumor of the duodenum (PTD).Method The clinical data of 52 cases with PTD in the last 10 years was analyzed retrospectively.Results The correct diagnostic rate of auxiliary examination was:duodenal endoscopy of 90.5%,air barium double radiography of 80%.Six primary benign tumors of duodenum (PBTD)were resected completely with a 5 year's survival of 100%.Among the 46 cases of primary malignant tumors of duodenum (PMTD),28 cases underwent pancreatoduodenectomy,4 cases received segmental duodenectomy,the remaining 13 cases in which the tumors were unresectable were treated bypass.The resection rate was 69.6% and the 5 years' survival rate was 32.6%.Conclusions Duodenal endoscopy and air barium double radiography are mainstays for the diagnosis of PTD.Segmental duodenectomy and simple tumor resection are curable for PBTD; while for PMTD,the therapy of choice should be pancreatoduodenectomy. Key words: Duodenal neoplasms; Duodenoscopy; Pancreaticoduodenectomy
