title: [Rare indication of cephalic duodenopancreatectomy with total gastrectomy--periampullary carcinoma in moderate form of familial adenomatous polyposis].
abstract: We present the case of a 52 years old man, with significant familial history, diagnosed with familial adenomatous polyposis-attenuated form, with no clinical and endoscopic surveillance until 2001 when he was admitted for an upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage episode. Upper gastrointestinal scopy revealed duodenal adenomatous polyps and gastric hyperplastic polyps. The patient underwent duodenopancreatectomy with total gastrectomy. The histopathological exam revealed duodenal G2 adenocarcinoma pT3N0, and gastric hyperplastic polyps with no signs of dysplasia. The surgical procedure was followed by chemotherapy. In 2002 the patient was admitted for rectal bleeding and colonoscopy showed 2 sigmoid polyps, appropriate for endoscopic removal and a poly-lobate polyp in the transverse colon. The patient underwent transverse colectomy (the histopathological exam--in situ carcinoma). March 2003--the patient underwent endoscopic removal for a rectal polyp (histopathological exam: moderate dysplasia). In 2005 was noted a pulmonary nodule, located in the postero-apical segment of upper left lobe, for which left superior lobe resection was performed (the histopathological exam: metastatic adenocarcinoma). In May 2006 was performed an exploratory laparotomy. Intraoperatively were noted: peritoneal carcinomatosis and multiple liver metastasis. The surgical procedure recommended in patients with attenuated form of familial adenomatous polyposis and suspect periampullary lesions is duodenopancreatectomy. The particularity of the case is the association of total gastrectomy for gastric hyperplastic polyps.
