RESUMEN
Resumen Introducción: La resección duodenal distal (RDD) es una técnica quirúrgica compleja e infrecuente usada para el tratamiento de patologías duodenales o extraduodenales, que no comprometen la papila duodenal mayor, siendo su indicación más frecuente la patología neoplásica. Objetivo: Dar a conocer nuestra experiencia con esta técnica quirúrgica. Materiales y Método: Serie de pacientes sometidos a RDD entre 2009-2020 en el Hospital Clínico UC. Resultados: Total 12 pacientes, mediana de edad 56 años. Diagnóstico preoperatorio: tumores primarios duodenales (4), tumores con compromiso duodenal por contigüidad (5) y patologías de urgencia (3). El abordaje fue abierto en 9 pacientes y laparoscópico en 3 (1 caso convertido). En 9 pacientes se resecó D3-D4, en 1 paciente incluyó parte de D2 y en 2, sólo D4. La anastomosis duodenoyeyunal fue manual en 10 casos, todas con ascenso transmesocólico del asa yeyunal. Hubo 33% (n: 4) de morbilidad, todos Clavien Dindo II y 8% de mortalidad (n: 1). No hubo filtración de la anastomosis duodenoyeyunal. En el seguimiento ninguno presentó complicaciones y 4 pacientes fallecieron por progresión oncológica. Conclusión: La principal indicación quirúrgica fue patología neoplásica y en nuestra serie no hubo morbilidad mayor ni filtración anastomótica.
Introduction: Distal duodenal resection is a complex and infrequent surgical technique used for the treatment of duodenal or extraduodenal pathologies that do not compromise the greater duodenal papilla, the most frequent indication being the neoplastic cause. Aim: To publicize our experience with this surgical technique. Materials and Method: Series of patients undergoing a distal duodenal resection between 2009-2020 at the UC Clinical Hospital. Results: Total 12 patients, median age 56 years. Preoperative diagnosis: primary duodenal tumors (4), tumors with duodenal involvement due to contiguity (5), and emergency pathologies (3). The approach was open in 9 patients and laparoscopic in 3 (1 converted). D3-D4 was resected in 10 patients, 1 included part of D2 and 2 only D4. The duodenojejunal anastomosis was manual in 10 cases, all with transmesocolic ascending of the jejunal loop. There were 33% (n: 4) morbidity, all Clavien Dindo II, and 8% mortality (n: 1). There was no leakage of the duodenojejunal anastomosis. During followup, none presented complications and 4 patients died of oncological progression. Conclusion: The main surgical indication was neoplastic pathology and in our series, there was no major morbidity or anastomotic leak.

Gangliocytic paragangliomas are infrequent tumors almost exclusively found in the second portion of the duodenum. An unusual case of a gangliocytic paraganglioma in the third portion of the duodenum with obstructive symptoms is herein reported. A 16-year-old male patient presented with epigastric pain, postprandial plenitude and reflux. A barium swallow failed to demonstrate abnormalities. Endoscopy showed a pedunculated submucosal tumor, originating at the third duodenal portion and causing partial obstruction. Biopsy was not performed due to the risk of bleeding. CT scan demonstrated a polypoid lesion. Through a transmesocolic approach and an anterior duodenotomy, resection of the tumor was performed. No lymph node or other organ affection was found. Histologic examination revealed a gangliocytic paraganglioma. Immunohistochemical examination was performed. Gangliocytic paragangliomas originating in the third or fourth portion of the duodenum, as in the present case, are extremely rare. Characteristic histologic features including epithelioid cells, spindle-shaped cells and ganglion-like cells were met. The majority of cases manifest with a similar benign behavior. Local resection of the tumor is recommended for these cases. An infrequent case of a gangliocytic paraganglioma located in the third portion of the duodenum, with a less common clinical presentation, is herein reported.
