Overview
If left untreated, patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome may progress to develop abdominal pain, diarrhea, and heartburn[1]. Common complications of Zollinger-Ellison syndrome include upper gastrointestinal bleeding, anemia, and duodenal ulcer perforation. Prognosis is generally good, and the 5 and 10-year survival rate of patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome is approximately 94% and 75%, respectively.[2]
Natural History
The symptoms of Zollinger-Ellison syndrome usually develop in the third decade of life, and start with symptoms such as heartburn and vomiting. Without treatment, the patient will develop symptoms of gastrinoma, which may eventually lead to anemia and death.
