ABSTRACT
In 1861 Rokitanski laid down the law that the pyloric ring served as a barrier to the duodenal spread of gastric cancer. Although this theory was generally accepted, direct spread of gastric carcinoma into the duodenum has been reported. We report a case of gastric cancer spreading into the duodenum that was diagnosed by endoscopic duodenal biopsy and review the literature.

ABSTRACT
It has been thought for many years that gastric adenocarcinoma almost never crosses the pylorus. Although this theory was generally accepted, several studies have refuted it. We report three cases of gastric adenocarcinoma direct spreading into the duodenum that was diagnosed by endoscopic duodenal biopsy and review the literature.
