  • Snapshot
    • A 42-year-old male presents to the clinic complaining of upper abdominal pain. He reports he is under considerable stress at work and smokes a pack of cigarettes every day. The pain occurs between meals and is worse at night and often wakes him from sleep. On 1 occasion he vomited blood. Testing reveals a basal acid output (BA) of 60 mEq (normal is < 5 mEq) and a serum gastrin level of 1,000 pg/ml (normal is < 300 pg/ml).
  • Epidemiology
    • Only 25% of gastrinomas arise in the pancreas with the majority occurring in the duodenum
