Duodenal Carcinoma

Duodenal adenocarcinoma constitutes 0.4% of gastrointestinal malignancies. Achalasia incidence rate is 0.5-1.2 per 100000. The combination is rare. This is a report of a 68-year-old male from Nepal with history of five years abdominal pain, dysphasia and weight loss. Duodenoscopy could confirm ulcero-proliferative growth at D1-D2. Barium meal depicted features of achalasia cardia. No similar case report suggests that occurrence of duodenal carcinoma and achalasia cardia is merely co- incidental. Discussion: No similar case report suggests that occurrence of duodenal carcinoma and achalasia cardia is merely co- incidental. Consent: Informed consent was obtained from the patient for publication of this case report .

AbstractBRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) countries account for more than two-thirds of the global tuberculosis burden. Tuberculosis is a common diagnosis in patients presenting with chronic respiratory symptoms in these high-burden countries, which results in other diseases being missed easily. The national tuberculosis elimination program encourages to start antitubercular treatment on a clinical basis even without any confirmatory evidence. This has resulted in missing many nontuberculosis cases and unnecessarily exposing to adverse effects of antitubercular drugs. Here we report one such instance where achalasia cardia was missed for a long time.
