Abstract
- Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (ZES) involves hypergastinemia produced by a gastrin-secreting tumor. Not only can it cause an ulcer but may also behave as a malignant lesion, metastasizing to the liver or other organs. The development of potent antisecretory agents for controlling acid secretion as well as techniques for localizing these islet cell tumors, has led to greatly improved survival rates. We describe a case of Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, emphasising the radiologic findings, and including a review of the literature.
