Abstract

Small intestinal tumor is a rare disease, with atypical symptoms, difficult for early diagnosis, with Controversial treatment. This study was to provide reference for prevention, diagnosis and treatment of this tumor. 57 cases of small intestinal tumor were reviewed. Clinicopathological features, survival and prognosis were followed up. Rates were compared using chi-square test, means between multiple groups were compared using ANOVA, OS was analyzed by Kaplan–Meier, COX proportional hazard model was for analyzing the prognosis. Number of cases showed increasing trend since 2000. Female exceeded Male except for jejunum tumor, but without significant difference; There were no significant difference between cases of more and less than 60 years of age. Exept for rare pathological types of carcinoid, female exceeded male, but without significant difference. Abdominal pain was the most common main clinical manifestation. 26.3% patients were found during treatment for intestinal obstruction. Jaundice was the manifestation of duodenal tumors, especially located ampulla of Vater. Anal stopping exhaust defecation was main clinical manifestation of ileal tumors. Main clinical symptom of adenocarcinoma was jaundice. Stromal tumor had clinical manifestations of diarrhea. Abdominal pain was primary clinical manifestation of other extremely rare pathological types. Gastrointestinal endoscopy was the most common examinational procedure. In Conclusions, Adenocarcinoma was the most common type among small intestinal tumors. Age had no effect on the choice of operative or chemotherapy option. Gender or age was independent prognostic factors for OS. Surgery was the most effective treatment, role of chemotherapy displayed no survival benefit.
