ABSTRACT

According to the authors' findings malignant forms of ulcerogenic tumors of the pancreas in the Zollinger-Ellison syndrome clinically show a relatively favourable course in oncological aspect. As a rule, patients die from complications of peptic ulcer before a progressive tumor growth or its metastases result in mortality. Therefore, in cases when the routine radical operators prove to be unfeasible, it is recommended to perform surgery for the purpose of liquidating ulcer and conditions for its recurrence.
