Introduction.
Small bowel cancers are rare.
Accumulation of data regarding their clinical presentation, pathologic features, prognostic factors, treatment modalities, and outcome is difficult.
Methods.
This is a retrospective study of the medical records of 33 patients with small bowel cancers treated at the American University of Beirut-Medical Center over a 20-year period.
Results.
The study included 25 males (76%) and 8 females (24%).
Median age at presentation was 56 years.
Most common symptoms were abdominal pain (66.7%) and weight loss (57.6%).
Thirteen patients presented with abdominal emergencies (39.3%).
Lymphoma was the most common malignant tumor (36.4%), followed by adenocarcinoma (33.3%), leiomyosarcoma (15.2%), gastrointestinal stromal tumors (12.1%), and neuroendocrine tumors (3.0%).
Tumors were located in the duodenum in 30% of patients, jejunum in 33%, and ileum in 36%.
Resectability rate was 72.7% and curative R0 resection was achieved in 54.1% (13/24) of patients.
5-year survival of the 33 patients was 24.2%.
Conclusion.
Small bowel cancers are difficult to diagnose because of the nonspecific symptoms.
Most patients present with advanced disease and have poor prognosis.
Adenocarcinoma and duodenal location have the worst 5-year survival in contrast to stromal tumors and those with ileal location which have the best survival.
