要旨●患者は40歳代,男性.検診の上部消化管内視鏡検査で十二指腸粘膜下腫瘍を指摘され来院した.上部消化管X線・内視鏡検査では十二指腸球部前壁に20mm大の平滑な半球状粘膜下腫瘍様隆起を認めた.超音波内視鏡検査では,第3層を主体とする均一な低エコー性の腫瘤として描出された.生検では確定診断に至らず,幽門側胃切除を施行した.腫瘍は幽門輪に接し,粘膜下層内に限局した最大径12mmの腫瘍であり,クロモグラニンA陽性の小型円形細胞より構成され,核分裂像は1/50視野,Ki-67標識率は1.5%であった.以上より,組織Grade 1(G1)の消化管内分泌細胞腫瘍(NET)と診断した.本例では,幽門前庭部のリンパ節に転移を認めた.
A 49-year-old man underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy for gastric cancer screening, which revealed a submucosal tumor-like lesion on the anterior wall of the duodenal bulb. Endoscopic biopsies failed to reveal a histological diagnosis. Given the possibility of neuroendocrine tumor(NET), we performed a distal gastrectomy to remove the duodenal lesion. The size of the resected tumor was 20mm in its largest diameter. The histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations revealed the tumor to be a G1 grade NET, which had invaded the deep layers of the submucosa. One of 18 dissected lymph nodes was positive for metastasis. Our case suggests that duodenal NET has a potential for lymph node metastasis regardless of its histologic grade.
