Abstract

A 79-year-old male, with a past medical history of hypertension, dyslipidemia and type 2 diabetes, underwent routine esophagogastroduodenoscopy and colonoscopy. The patient was asymptomatic, with unremarkable blood tests. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy showed multiple whitish nodular lesions in the first part of the duodenum.
