Abstract:

Small bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is a rare malignant tumor with poor prognosis and low overall survival. Researches of recent years have shown that the environmental factors and genetic factors play a role in the development of SBA. In addition, a variety of genetic mutations, DNA methylation, DNA mismatch repair, microsatellite instability and related signal pathways were activated abnormally involved in the occurrence and development of SBA. However, the pathogenesis of SBA is not completely clear and further research should be performed to provide theoretical basis and new ideas for the clinical diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of SBA.

Key words: small bowel adenocarcinoma, pathogenic factors, molecular mechanism
