Small Intestine Cancer

Small intestine cancer is a rare type of cancer that forms in the small intestine. Factors that may increase the risk of developing small intestine cancer include:

  • Eating a diet high in fat, especially saturated or animal fats
  • Celiac disease (inability to digest gluten)
  • Crohn’s disease (a type of disease that causes inflammation in the small and large intestine)

Symptoms of small intestine cancer

  • A lump in the abdomen
  • Blood in the stool
  • Unexplained weight loss
  • Pain or cramps in the abdomen

Diagnosis of small intestine cancer

  • Barium enema (a special x-ray of the intestine)
  • Fecal occult blood tests to detect any blood in the stool
  • CEA (Carcino-embryonic antigen)
  • Liver function tests
  • MRI or CT scans of the chest, abdomen and pelvis to detect any spread of the cancer
