Abstract: Objective By analyzing the clinical and pathological characteristics of small intestinal neoplasms of patients presenting at our hospital,this study was to improve our cognition of this disease and the prognosis.Methods We collected and reviewed the medical records of 121 patients suffering from small intestinal neoplasms,who underwent surgery at Ruijin hospital from January 2003 to June 2009.Diagnosis was confirmed by pathological examination,and patients were followed-up.Results Intestinal hemorrhage,anemia and abdominal pain were the three main symptoms for all patients.CT,and gastrointestinal endoscopy were valuable for the diagnosis of small intestine neoplasms.Compared with open surgery,laparoscopic procedures can shorten the operation time and the postoperative length of hospital stay.Conclusions Surgical procedure is the key treatment for patients with small intestinal neoplasms.Long term follow-up plays important role in the detection of other synchronous or metachronous gastrointestinal tumors and improves the prognosis.
