A Rare Case of Brunneroma Presenting as Gastric Perforation with Review of Literature
2015
INTRODUCTION: Brunners gland adenomas are rare benign tumors usually located in the bulb of the duodenum. Very rarely, heterotopic Brunners gland tissue tumors have also been reported at remote locations from the duodenum, eg. pylorus, pancreas and jejunum. CASE: We report a case of Brunneroma in a patient presenting with a prepyloric perforation with no mass lesion seen on surgery. The diagnosis was established on histopathological examination of the perforation margins.
