Gastrinoma With Relatively Low Gastrin Levels: A Case Report

Gastrinomas can often be cured with surgical removal if detected early enough. We present a case report where a patient was diagnosed with gastrinoma with relatively low serum gastrin levels after subsequent duodenojejunostomy, gastrojejunostomy, total gastrectomy, and cholecystectomy. With this cas...

description Gastrinomas can often be cured with surgical removal if detected early enough. We present a case report where a patient was diagnosed with gastrinoma with relatively low serum gastrin levels after subsequent duodenojejunostomy, gastrojejunostomy, total gastrectomy, and cholecystectomy. With this case report, we hope to promote a higher level of awareness of pancreatic neuroendocrine (NE) tumors and educate clinicians on the full effects of proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use on patient workup, diagnostics, and care.
