Passaro's triangle

Passaro's triangle or gastrinoma triangle is a presumptive region in the abdomen between three points: The importance of the triangle is because it is known as the source of origin of most gastrinomas.

[3][4] However, primary gastrinomas can also occur in the liver or extrahepatic bile ducts, commonly with metastasis to the local lymph nodes.

[5] The appellation is due to Edward Peter Passaro, an American surgeon, who explained it for the first time.
