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:
- Duodenal cancer (the first part of the small intestine)
- Cancer of the jejunum and ileum (the later two parts of the small intestine)
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.
