Abstract
The occurrence of benign tumors in the duodenum was once thought to be rare. But with the wide spread use of roentgenographic investigation of the gastrointestinal tract, the diagnosis of the doudenal tumor has become commoner. We encountered 9 cases of duodenal tumors recently and 4 were operated. We presented these cases with reference to their roentgenological features and discussed the diagnosis in them.
