Duodenal cancer is a rare form of cancer that occurs in the duodenum, the first part of the small intestine immediately beyond the stomach. Symptoms can include abdominal pain, weight loss, nausea, vomiting, and jaundice, often depending on the tumor's size and location. Because these symptoms can be common to many other conditions, diagnosis is frequently delayed. Treatment typically involves surgery to remove the tumor, which may include part of the duodenum and surrounding tissue. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy may also be used, depending on the cancer stage and individual circumstances, to reduce the risk of recurrence and manage symptoms. Early detection is crucial for improving treatment outcomes.
