ObjectiveTo summarize the diagnosis and treatment process of a patient who underwent laparoscopic local excision of duodenal papillary tumor, and to explore the safety and feasibility of this surgery. MethodThe clinicopathologic characteristics and surgical procedure of the patient with duodenal papillary neuroendocrine tumor admitted to the West China Hospital of Sichuan University in June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. ResultsThe patient underwent the laparoscopic local excision of duodenal papillary tumor + in situ cholangiojejunostomy and pancreaticojejunostomy. The operation lasted about 3 hours, the blood loss was about 20 mL, and the patient exhausted on the 3rd day after the operation. On the 7th postoperative day, the gastric tube was pulled out and oral feeding was started. On the 8th day, the plasma drainage tube was pulled out and the patient was discharged smoothly. There was no duodenal fistula, bleeding, wound infection, and other complications. After 6 months of follow-up, the general condition of this patient was good, and no tumor recurrence or metastasis was found. ConclusionLaparoscopic local excision is an appropriate option for benign or low-grade malignancies involving the duodenal papillary tumor.
