A 55-year-old patient reports progressive postprandial fullness for the past 3 weeks. He currently has intolerance to oral intake with vomiting of undigested food. Endoscopic examination shows retained food debris in the gastric cavity and a large ulcer (approximately 3 cm in diameter) in the distal portion near the second part of the duodenum. Histopathological examination demonstrated adenocarcinoma. Which of the following therapeutic options is the most appropriate? A. Treatment consists of a pancreaticoduodenectomy (Whipple procedure). B. Treatment of duodenal carcinoma is palliative; therefore, a posterior retrocolic inframesocolic gastrojejunostomy should be performed. C. Segmental resection with end-to-end duodenal anastomosis should be performed. D. Placement of a self-expanding stent combined with radiotherapy and systemic chemotherapy should be carried out. E. Considering the frequent involvement of the ampulla of Vater, a biliary bypass should be performed followed by gastrojejunostomy.
