Abstract

Primary tumors of the small intestine are rare, and metastatic ones are even rarer. It is exceptional for small bowel metastases to manifest before the primary tumor. The clinical presentation may require surgical resection motivated by intestinal perforation, hemorrhage or intestinal obstruction-subocclusion. Survival is scarce and generally does not exceed 20 weeks, regardless of the treatment performed.
