Abstract:
Primary duodenal adenocarcinoma (PDA)is a rare but aggressive digestive tract malignancy,and its incidence is increasing in recent years. Early diagnosis of PDA is challenging due to nonspecific symptoms. Hence,it is often detected at an advanced stage. Treatment strategies tends to favor aggressive surgical resection. Adjuvant chemotherapy and radiation are important components of multi-modality treatment for patients with high risk of recurrence, and molecular targeted therapy is still in the exploratory stage. The best adjuvant therapy after operation is not yet clear. Early diagnosis and treatment is of great significance for prognosis. This article reviewed advances in epidemiology,risk factors,diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of PDA.
