- Abstract
- Gastrinomas are endocrine tumors associated with the
Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (ZES). Surgical exploration is
recommended to achieve a cure in all patients without liver
metastasis or multiple endocrine neoplasm-I. For those
who refuse surgical exploration or for those who are not
surgical candidates, medical treatment with proton pump
inhibitors has a role in controlling the complications. There
are few data in which endoscopic therapy has been used to
treat symptomatic duodenal gastrinomas. Thus, we report
a case of a duodenal gastrinoma that was treated with endoscopic
band ligation (EBL).
