PY - 2018 T2 - Textbook of Complex General Surgical Oncology AB - Despite its length and surface area, the small bowel accounts for less than 5% of all gastrointestinal cancers, and has a malignancy rate 50-fold lower than that of the colon.1-3 When tumors do arise in the small bowel, however, they tend to evade detection for some time and therefore commonly present at an advanced stage. This chapter will review the most common types of small bowel neoplasms and their management, including adenocarcinoma, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, and lymphoma, while excluding tumors of the duodenum and neuroendocrine tumors, which are covered elsewhere in this volume.
