[A case of duodenal carcinoid associated with early gastric carcinoma].
This case involves a 51-year-old female. In 1983, a gastroscopic examination disclosed a submucosal tumor in the duodenum. In 1986, during follow-up observation, on her visit to hospital an early gastric carcinoma at the antrum was found. Thus, a distal gastrectomy, which entailed the complete removal of the Group 2 lymph nodes and the hepatoduodenal, intra-mesenteric lymph nodes, and Billroth I reconstructive surgery were both performed. A histopathological examination revealed that the antral lesion was a carcinoma, sig. m. ly0. v0. n(-), and that a lesion at the duodenal bulb was carcinoid, with cell that were positive to Grimelius staining and to somatostatin serotonin by an immunological staining. A metastases to the lymph nodes but only along the upper trunk of the common hepatic artery, also was found.
