Overview

Small intestine cancer may be classified according to histology into adenocarcinoma, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, lymphoma, ileal carcinoid tumor, and sarcoma (most commonly leiomyosarcoma and rarely angiosarcoma or liposarcoma).

Classification

Small intestine cancer may be subdivided anatomically into:

Small intestine cancer may be classified according to histology into 3 groups, which are further classified into subtypes:[1]

  • Benign tumors
  • Malignant tumors
  • Extra-intestinal tumors.
