Joe PY - 2019 T2 - Maingot's Abdominal Operations, 13e AB - Primary tumors of the small intestine, both benign and malignant, are rare. With the potential to arise from virtually every cell type within the small intestine—the epithelium, neural tissues, and lymphatic and mesenchymal cells—the small bowel may also be the site for metastases from other primary tumors. The variety and uncommon nature of these tumors make generalizations regarding their management difficult. In this chapter, we will review the epidemiology and clinical diagnostic and management strategies for benign and malignant neoplasms of the small bowel.
