Metastasis of breast cancer to major duodenal papilla

Tiago Bastos et al. Rev Gastroenterol Peru. 2014 Apr.

Abstract

Metastasis is an infrequent cause of tumor involvement of the major duodenal papilla and of cholestasis. We report a case of obstructive jaundice due to a metastatic breast carcinoma to the major duodenal papilla, and assess curative and palliative treatment that interventional endoscopy can offer.
