The Authors report on a case of duodenal leiomyosarcoma of small dimensions in a paravaterian site and presenting a low degree of histological malignity. They summarize the main anatomoclinical features of the neoplasm and conclude by indicating less aggressive surgical therapy as adequate in such cases, accompanied, however, by a protracted post-operative follow-up.
