DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:
- Diagnosis of any of the following upper gastrointestinal malignancies:
- Localized pancreatic adenocarcinoma
- Stage I, II, or III disease
- Parapancreatic node involvement and locally recurrent disease allowed
- Locally advanced biliary, gallbladder, or ampullary adenocarcinoma
- Stage II, III, or locally recurrent disease
- Histologically confirmed locally advanced gastric adenocarcinoma
- T3, T4, or node positive OR locally recurrent disease
- Histologically confirmed locally advanced duodenal cancer
- Stage II or III disease
- Locally advanced, but unresectable cancers may be included on protocol if appropriate for intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT)
- Other histologies may be considered for this protocol except for lymphoma, sarcoma, or neuroendocrine tumors
- Patients with evidence of metastatic disease are eligible if there is significant local disease warranting surgery and IORT

- Absolute neutrophil count > 1,500/mm^3
- Platelet count > 100,000/mm^3
- Serum creatinine < 2.0 mg/dL
- ALT < 3 x normal
- Bilirubin < 2 x normal
- Must be able to give voluntary informed consent
- No severe intercurrent illness that would make the patient inappropriate for laparotomy or otherwise inappropriate for treatment on protocol
