Postoperative course complicated wound infection. discharged postoperative day 10. still alive 2 years follow-up. Conclusions. carcinomas are pancreas relatively benign course. This displays morphologies pleomorphic cells mononuclear spindle cells, not always tends have underlying ovarian type stroma. comprehensive histopathological examination necessary order cure most MCN patients minimally types.
