Abstract

Tumors of the ileocecal valve are rarely mentioned, and are mostly defined radiologically. In this manuscript, we report a case of ileocecal valve adenocarcinoma diagnosed endoscopically. The case is a male patient, 78-years-old, with abdominal pain and weight loss in whom a mass was palpated in the lower right quadrant. Abdominal ultrasound examination followed by colonoscopy and pathological diagnosis revealed adenocarcinoma of the ileocecal valve confirmed by surgical diagnosis. We report this case because of its rarity and because there is no endoscopic image in the medical literature.

Özet

İleoçekal valv tümörleri nadir rastlanan ve daha çok radyolojik olarak tanı konulan tümörlerdir. Bu yazımızda endoskopik olarak tanı konmuş bir olguyu sunuyoruz. Yetmiş sekiz yaşında erkek hasta karın ağrısı, kilo kaybı ve sağ alt kadranda ele gelen kitle yakınmalarıyla kliniğimize başvurdu. Batın ultrasonografisi, ardından kolonoskopik tetkik ve patoloji ile adenokarsinom tanısı konuldu. Bu tanı cerrahi olarak da doğrulandı. Nadir rastlanması ve tıbbi literatürde endoskopik görüntünün olmaması nedeniyle bu olguyu sunmayı uygun bulduk.
