Abstract
Introduction: Malignant tumors of the small intestine comprise 2-3% of all gastrointestinal cancers. Adenocarcinomas account for 95% of primary small intestine malignancies. The prevalence of adenocarcinoma increases with advanced age. They are commonly located in the distal duodenum and the proximal jejunum. They are usually diagnosed coincidentally and are most effectively treated by surgery.
Case Presentation: Here we present a 67-year-old female patient who underwent emergency surgery for acute strangulated hernia during which a tumoral mass was discovered in the ileum, leading to a diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the ileum.
Conclusion: The most effectively treated method is surgery in small intestine adenocarcinomas.

Abstract
Giriş: İnce bağırsağın malign tümörleri tüm gastrointestinal sistem malignitelerinin %2-3’ ünü oluşturmaktadır. İnce bağırsağın primer malignitelerinin %95’ ini adenokarsinomlar oluşturmaktadır. İleri yaşlarda sıklığı artmaktadır. Sıklıkla yerleşim yeri distal duodenum ve proksimal jejunumdur. Tanı genellikle rastlantısal olarak konulmaktadır. Cerrahi en etkin tedavi yöntemidir.
Vaka Sunumu: Bu yazıda, akut strangüle herni sebebiyle acil operasyona alınmış ve operasyon esnasında ileumda tespit edilen tümöral kitle ile ileum adenokarsinomu tanısı konulan 67 yaşında kadın hasta sunulmuştur.
Sonuç: İnce bağırsak adenokanserlerinde en etkin tedavi yöntemi cerrahidir.
