A 75-year-old woman with melena was found to have a carcinoid tumor in the posterior wall of the duodenal bulb. The biology was normal. The tumor measured 10 mm in size, and endoscopic ultrasonography showed only submucosal involvement. There was no liver metastasis and no regional lymph nodes. Tumoral resection was performed laparoscopically with success. Postoperative course was uneventful. Laparoscopic resection could be an appropriate minimally invasive treatment for selected small size duodenal tumors.
