Abstract
PRIETO, C. et al. Duodenal gangliocytic paraganglioma. Anales Sis San Navarra [online]. 2005, vol.28, n.1, pp.109-113. ISSN 1137-6627.
We present the case of an 85 year old male who was admitted to hospital with abdominal pain and jaundice. Different explorations were performed for this reason, with a mass observed in his 2nd duodenal portion. Histiological study showed that it was a duodenal gangliocytic paraganlioma. The clinical characteristics of this infrequent tumour are described and we review the diagnosis and treatment.
Keywords : Duodenal paraganlioma; Jaundice; Submucous lipoma.
