BackgroundAs a rare condition, sporadic non-ampullary duodenal adenoma (SNADA) is typically asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally. It warrants treatment due to the high risk of malignant transformation. However, giant SNADA, especially those treated by hybrid endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), are exceedingly rare, and to our knowledge, this condition has not been reported previously.Case presentation A 69-year-old Chinese male incidentally discovered a giant sporadic non-ampullary duodenal adenoma (SNADA). Given the size, location, and noninvasive request, we performed hybrid ESD to completely resect giant SNADA (4.5*2.8*1.0cm) without postoperative discomfort and complications. Final pathology confirmed a margin-negative tubulovillous adenoma with low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia.ConclusionWe present a rare case of giant SNADA that was successfully dissected by hybrid ESD. Further, we provide a brief review, discuss the treatment protocol of this case, and provide a new perspective for the future diagnosis and treatment of giant SNADA.
