Carcinoid tumor of the duodenal papilla is very rare. The authors report the case of a 17 years old male with a carcinoid tumor at this site in whom a partial pancreatoduodenectomy was performed and who is well and asymptomatic 13 years after the surgical intervention. A review of literature of this unusual condition and a discussion about the treatment are presented.
