Abstract
We report a case of a 72-year-old man who presented with abdominal pain. Computed tomography revealed stenosis at the ascending colon, while colonoscopy showed extrinsic stenosis at the ascending colon. Intraoperatively, the tumors were palpated in the ascending colon and the jejunum 30 cm distal from Treitz's ligament with peritoneal dissemination. Ileocecal and partial resection of the jejunum were performed. Histopathological findings showed well-differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma originating from a Heinrich type II aberrant pancreas in the jejunum and a metastatic lesion in the ascending colon.
Aberrant pancreatic cancer in the jejunum is rarely encountered. Here we report such a case and review the pertinent literature.
