The duodenum really doesn't surround any anatomical part.

Explanation:

The duodenum is part of the digestive tract. It is found along down the line next to the stomach.

As for surround something, the best answer would be the opening or tube that the digestive tract makes.

This tract is just a tube that runs entirely through you. Think of it as something you could run a pipe thorough and never really be inside the body. It is a rather disturbing thought, but it is true.

It begins at the mouth and run to the anus. It has a mucous membrane that keeps the tube system moist and pliable.
