 Duodenal adenocarcinoma has long been regarded as a rare disease. However, its detection has increased in recent years. In Western countries, the incidence of duodenal adenocarcinoma has shown a gradual increase, while most patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage and long-term survival remains poor. In contrast, analyses of the national cancer registry in Japan have demonstrated a higher incidence of non-ampullary duodenal adenocarcinoma and a greater proportion of cases detected at an early stage, likely reflecting widespread availability of upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and advances in endoscopic diagnostic techniques. Regarding the natural history of superficial non-ampullary duodenal epithelial tumors (SNADETs), most small low-grade adenomas follow an indolent course, whereas a subset progresses to high-grade adenomas or adenocarcinoma. Tumor size, location, and phenotypic characteristics have been suggested as factors associated with progression risk. Small low-grade adenomas ≤10 mm may be acceptable for surveillance. However, the diagnostic accuracy of forceps biopsy is limited, and careful follow-up based on endoscopic assessment is essential when a surveillance strategy is adopted. Gastric-type and intestinal-type lesions exhibit distinct clinicopathological features, and the natural history of SNADETs remains incompletely understood. Moreover, established risk factors for sporadic SNADETs have not yet been clearly identified. Further accumulation of epidemiological data is warranted.
