[Villous adenoma of the duodenum. Presentation of a case].
A case of villous adenoma of the duodenum is presented; the wide implantation of the tumor imposed a cephalic duodenopancreatectomy. The endoscopic examination plays an important role in the diagnosis of these tumors, but it frequently; does not exclude the possibility of a malignant lesion, this fact renders difficult the choice of adequate treatment. We review the surgical approach of these tumors, which ranges from local resection to duodenopancreatectomy, depending on the pathological study and intraoperative findings.
