Duodenal stump recurrence of gastric adenocarcinoma after subtotal gastrectomy.
The authors present the case of a 71-year-old man with a history of a Billroth-II subtotal gastrectomy due to a mixed adenocarcinoma, stage pT4aN3aM0 (TNM classification), with adjuvant chemotherapy. Subsequent endoscopic and imaging evaluations revealed no signs of recurrence. Five years later, the patient was admitted with obstructive jaundice.
