Abstract

Brunner's glands are submucosal glands found in the duodenum. When they proliferate, they can lead to the formation of hamartomas, they are a rare cause of benign lesions of the duodenum. The aim of the article is to present a case of a Brunner gland hamartoma, which was surgically approached due to obstructive symptoms, in addition to showing apparent images of intussusception on the abdominal tomography.
