Abstract

Zollinger Ellison syndrome is an unusual entity. This termn is used to describe the clinical manifestations of a gastrin-synthesizing neoplasm. Gastrinomas occur mainly in the duodenum and pancreas. Primary gastrinomas are rarely found in other intra-abdominal sites, such as the ovary, bile ducts, spleen or kidney, or even more unusual in extra-abdominal locations. Several studies provide strong evidence that gastrinomas can also occur in the lymph nodes. However, the existence of primary lymph node gastrinomas is controversial.
