[Primary adenocarcinoma of the duodenum. Clinical picture and radiological findings].
The clinical and radiological features of primary adenocarcinoma of the duodenum are demonstrated by seven histologically confirmed cases. Clinically, obstruction develops following a prolonged uncharacteristic prodromal stage. The radiological findings resemble those of a carcinoma in any other part of the gastro-intestinal tract: polypoid filling defects, ulcers, mural thickening and loss of elasticity. The radiological method of choice is hypotonic duodenography. Sonography and CT are complimentary methods and are of use in postoperative follow-up.
