Summary
The authors use a case report of a female patient with chronic abdominal pain progressing postprandially as an example to demonstrate the complexity of the diagnostic process in patients with these complaints, as well as a surprising peroperative finding in which a small neuroendocrine tumour of the small intestine was the cause of the difficulties. The ensuing discussion also deals with other possible causes of chronic abdominal pain associated with eating disorders.
Key words:
chronic abdominal pain – neuroendocrine tumour of the small intestine – treatment
