Lee CS, Machet D, Rode J.

Department of Anatomical Pathology, St. Vincent's Hospital, Melbourne, Australia.

Primary small cell carcinoma of the periampullary region is rare. Only four patients have been reported previously. The authors examined a patient with ampullary small cell carcinoma using a range of immunocytochemical stains. This tumor shows morphologic and neuroendocrine features similar to its pulmonary and extrapulmonary counterparts.
