Gastrinomas are rare tumors forming in the pancreas or duodenum, which is the first part of the small intestine. These growths can form as a single tumor or group of tumors. They begin in the cells that produce gastrin, which is a hormone responsible for secreting gastric acid. If you have a gastrinoma, your body secretes large amounts of gastrin, resulting in a higher level of stomach acid. This higher level can cause the formation of ulcers in your stomach and small bowel.
