Abstract
|
|
|
|
Carcinoid tumors of the ampulla of Vater is very rare. Only 109 cases have been reported in the international literatures and 17 in Korea. Unlike duodenal carcinoids, their metastasis is not related with tumor size in foreign reports. Thus, treatment is surgical resection even in small tumors. We experienced a rare case of carcinoid tumor of ampulla of Vater and report here with reviews of all domestic cases.
