Primary adenocarcinoma of small bowel is an infrequent neoplasm that presents with nonspecific symptoms. We report a case of 47 -year old man with adenocarcinoma of jejunum presenting with proximal small bowel obstruction, weight loss and abdominal mass. Abdominal ultrasound and computed tomography showed a mass involving the proximal jejunum causing partial obstruction. On exploration a mass arising from jejunum was found one foot distal to ligament of Treitz which was resected en-block. Histopathological examination revealed poorly differentiated adenocarcinma of jejunum pT3 N0 MX. 5 - fluorouracil was administered as adjuvant chemotherapy
