Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: The neuroendocrine system includes various endocrine glands, with neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) primarily found in the lungs and gastrointestinal tract. This report presents a rare case of a duodenal NEN in a 72-year-old male, highlighting diagnostic and management challenges.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 72-year-old male presented with melena and hypotension, revealing anemia and thrombocytopenia. Imaging and biopsy confirmed a low-grade neuroendocrine tumor, leading to surgical resection and a diagnosis of a well-differentiated tumor measuring 1.7 cm.
DISCUSSION: This case underscores the complexities of diagnosing duodenal neuroendocrine tumors, with surgical resection necessary due to the tumor's invasive nature. Timely intervention and interdisciplinary collaboration are vital for effective management and monitoring.
CONCLUSION: This report highlights successful management of a duodenal neuroendocrine tumor in a 72-year-old male, emphasizing timely surgical intervention. Continued follow-up is essential for monitoring recurrence and ensuring optimal patient care.
