Abstract

The incidence of duodenal adenocarcinoma in general population is very rare. It may arise from duodenal polyps seen in familial polyposis or can be associated with celiac disease. Usually duodenal adenocarcinoma is seen in middle or elderly age group. It can occur in young age also when it is associated with polyposis syndromes or with any inflammatory diseases affecting small bowel. But when there is no such syndromes or diseases, duodenal adenocarcinoma in young age is very rare. We are reporting a case of 28 years old male who presented to us with history of recurrent abdominal pain. After evaluation it was diagnosed as adenocarcinoma arising from junction of first and second part of duodenum without any associated polyposis syndromes or inflammatory bowel diseases.
