Sumario:Malignant neoplasms arising from the Brunner gland are exceedingly rare. A 62-year-old man with a history of surgical resection of Brunner gland adenocarcinoma presented with upper extremity cellulitis. Hospital course was complicated by atrial fibrillation and hematochezia. Bidirectional endoscopy was negative; however, small bowel enteroscopy revealed recurrence of Brunner gland adenocarcinoma 6 years after surgical resection. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of recurrent Brunner gland adenocarcinoma after curative resection.
