contents Primary Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma of the Duodenum: Case Report Judith Ruiz-Barrios Hernán Rodríguez-Arrieta Yennifer Diaz-Montes Medicina Neoplasm duodenum mucinous adenocarcinoma Introduction: Primary carcinoma of the duodenum is an infrequent malignancy; it represents 0.3-0.5% of all carcinomas of the GI tract and 33-45% of all carcinomas of the small intestine. Clinical case: A 57-year-old female patient with nonspecific GI symptoms and unintentional weight loss was diagnosed with diffuse, infiltrating, and ulcerated adenocarcinoma in the duodenum. Surgical management with duodenopancreatectomy was considered; however, it could not be performed due to deteriorating nutritional status. She later died due to abdominal sepsis. Conclusion: The clinical manifestations of adenocarcinoma of the duodenum are variable and nonspecific. It is a challenge to make an early diagnosis. We recommend considering the diagnostic possibility in patients with nausea, emesis, abdominal pain, and weight loss, which requires esophagogastroduodenoscopy and histological and immunohistochemical confirmation. 2023 otro 0120-9957 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=337782275014 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3377/337782275014/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3377/337782275014/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3377/337782275014/337782275014.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3377/337782275014/movil 10.22516/25007440.947 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3377 Revista Colombiana de Gastroenterología application/pdf Asociación Colombiana de Gastroenterologia Revista Colombiana de Gastroenterología (Colombia) Num.3 Vol.38
