A Site

Carcinoid tumors are the most common nonduodenal small bowel tumors. Although the diagnosis of any small bowel tumor is challenging, serum tumor markers and specialized imaging can aid in the diagnosis of carcinoid. Localized carcinoids are treated with surgical resection, whereas metastatic tumors are treated with somatostatin analogues, although liver-directed therapies can improve disease-related symptoms. In contrast, small bowel lymphomas are primarily treated with chemotherapy and sometimes radiation, although surgical intervention may be necessary for diagnosis and resection for palliation of symptoms. Furthermore, there are many benign etiologies of small bowel tumors, including adenoma, leiomyoma, and lipoma. The small bowel can also be a site of distant metastases for which surgical management is reserved for the treatment of complications such as bleeding, obstruction, perforation, or pain.

Duodenal Resection

Although malignancies involving the small bowel are rare, one-third of these are located in the duodenum. The majority of duodenal tumors are adenocarcinoma but also may include gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), carcinoid or neuroendocrine tumors, sarcomas, and lymphoma. These commonly present with nonspecific symptoms, but obstructive patterns predominate when symptoms are present. Preoperative diagnosis is made via endoscopy and/or cross-sectional imaging. This section focuses on treatment and surgical management for adenocarcinoma, carcinoid tumors, and GISTs of the duodenum. Surgical resection is the primary treatment of for all three of these, but all have significant nuances in surgical planning and decision-making as well as variability in the role of adjunctive treatment in their management. Functional carcinoid tumors can have hormone-driven symptoms and are associated with an increase in risk of carcinoid crisis, which may be prophylactically treated with intravenous octreotide. Resection of these tumors relies heavily on tumor relationship to the ampulla. Key anatomic distinctions and clinical tips to identify the ampulla to ensure an appropriate duodenal resection are discussed in this review. This review contains 12 figures, 5 tables, and 54 references. Key Words: carcinoid, duodenal carcinoma, duodenal adenocarcinoma, duodenal resection, duodenal tumors, neuroendocrine tumor, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, small bowel tumors

Peutz Jeghers Syndrome

Until 2001, the nonsurgical evaluation of the small intestine was largely limited to the use of radiologic imaging (e.g., small bowel follow-through or enteroclysis). With the now widespread availability of video capsule endoscopy and deep enteroscopy since 2001, we are now able to visualize the length and most of the mucosa of the small intestine and manage small bowel lesions that were previously inaccessible except by surgical intervention. This review serves as an overview for these two procedures, detailing the indications and contraindications, proper timing of the procedure, technical aspects of the devices themselves, possible complications, and outcomes. Figures show endoscopic images that demonstrate multiple angioectasias, bleeding during capsule endoscopy, active Crohn disease of the small bowel, severe mucosal scalloping, small bowel carcinoid tumor, small bowel polyp associated with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug enteropathy; serial x-rays of a patient with a patency capsule retained inside the small intestine; a computer image showing the distribution of small bowel tumors; and a pie chart displaying the breakdown of the distribution of benign and malignant tumors that can be found in the small intestine. Videos show multiple angioectasias, bleeding during capsule endoscopy, active Crohn disease of the small bowel, small bowel carcinoid tumor, and small bowel polyp associated with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome. This review contains 10 highly rendered figures, 5 videos, and 50 references.
