RESUMEN
Gastrinomas are neuroendocrine tumors usually located in the duodenum and pancreas, in the context of a Multiple Endocrine Neoplasm and forming a Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. The location of this type of lymph node tumor is extremely unusual and its early diagnosis constitutes a real challenge to be able to establish an adequate treatment and manage the complications that these entail. We present the case of a 64-year-old male patient with a lymph node gastrinoma and whose surgical removal resulted in the immediate remission of the patient's symptoms.

Los gastrinomas son tumores neuroendocrinos localizados generalmente en duodeno y páncreas, en el contexto de una neoplasia endocrina múltiple y configurando un síndrome de Zollinger-Ellison. La localización de este tipo de tumor en ganglios linfáticos es extremadamente inusual y su diagnóstico precoz constituye un verdadero reto para poder instaurar un tratamiento adecuado y manejar las complicaciones que estos conllevan. Se presenta el caso de un paciente varón de 64 años con un gastrinoma de ganglio linfático y cuya extirpación quirúrgica resultó en la remisión inmediata del cuadro clínico del paciente.
