Adenocarcinoma of the small intestine is a rare but aggressive malignancy accounting for a small fraction of gastrointestinal cancers. We present a clinical case of a female in her mid-30s with acute kidney failure caused by persistent vomiting due to an occlusive small intestine adenocarcinoma. This report highlights the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges associated with this uncommon tumor and underscores the importance of considering rare malignancies in patients with unexplained gastrointestinal symptoms and renal complications.
