Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm.
A 75-year-old male with a history of dyslipidemia, no alcohol abuse, acute pericarditis and two pancreatitis episodes 16 and 3 years ago, consulted due to a new pancreatitis episode (amylase 536 IU/l). Abdominal CT and MRI showed irregular, rosary-like dilatation of the duct of Wirsung in the body and tail (Fig. 1). In the pancreatic body-tail, echoendoscopy revealed a 15-mm duct of Wirsung wit...
متن کاملCytopathologic diagnosis of oncocytic type intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm: Criteria and clinical implications of accurate diagnosis.
BACKGROUND Cytologic findings of pancreatic oncocytic-type intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs)/intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasms (IOPNs) are largely unknown. METHODS Five IOPNs encountered by the authors were analyzed. RESULTS Four IOPNs were located in the pancreatic head, and 1 was located in the pancreatic body/tail in 2 men and 3 women ages 56 to 84 years (mean age,...
متن کاملfocus on the intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the pancreas
intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (ipmns) are rare pancreatic tumours, accounting for less of 1-2% of all neoplasms of the gland. main characteristics of ipmns are their favourable prognosis as these pre-malignant or frankly malignant lesions are usually slow-growing tumours and radical surgery is frequently possible. according with the localization of the lesions, three different entiti...
متن کامل[MicroRNA expression pattern in intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm].
BACKGROUND/AIMS Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN) are precursor lesions of fatal pancreatic cancer. Physiological function of microRNA is to regulate the stability and translation of mRNA. The aberrant microRNA expression is commonly observed in many cancers. The aim of this study was to analyze the expression pattern of microRNA in IPMN and evaluate the role of the microRNA. ME...
متن کاملIntraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasm having clinical characteristics of mucinous cystic neoplasm and a benign histology.
CONTEXT An intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasm is a rare pancreatic tumor which was first described by Adsay et al. in 1996. It has been defined as a new subgroup of IPMN. CASE REPORT We report the case of a 76-year-old woman who presented with nausea. Imaging studies revealed a cystic mass in the body of the pancreas. She underwent a successful distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy, and...
