Cystic pancreatic lymphangioma. The first report of a preoperative pathological diagnosis by endoscopic ultrasound-guided cyst aspiration.
CONTEXT We describe a case of cystic lymphangioma of the pancreas in which a preoperative tissue diagnosis was made with endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA). CASE REPORT A 20-year-old female presented with upper abdominal pain of two months duration and was found to have a cystic lesion in the pancreatic tail. Radiological imaging could not determine the organ of ori...
متن کاملPancreatic splenosis mimicking neuroendocrine tumors: microhistological diagnosis by endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration.
CONTEXT Pancreatic splenosis is a benign condition which can mimic a pancreatic neoplasm. OBJECTIVE To describe the role of the endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) of pancreatic nodules suspicious for pancreatic splenosis. METHOD From 1997 to 2011, patients with pancreatic solid tumors suspicious for splenosis by computed tomography and/or magnetic resonance imagin...
متن کاملIntrapancreatic Accessory Spleen: A Diagnosis Not to Forget!
A 69-year-old male patient was incidentally diagnosed with a 5-mm lesion in the pancreatic tail by endoscopic ultrasound (EUS). After contrast-enhanced EUS and EUS-elastography, all imaging features were highly suggestive of a benign pancreatic solid lesion such as an intrapancreatic accessory spleen (IPAS) or a benign neuroendocrine tumor. Interposition of the splenic artery precluded EUS-guid...
متن کاملRapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) in pancreatic cancer diagnosis: Doing more with less
Most of pancreatic masses are represented by neoplastic processes, primarily ductal adenocarcinoma and less frequently neuroendocrine tumor, lymphoma and metastasis. On the contrary, non-neoplastic lesions are represented by chronic, autoimmune pancreatitis and cysts [1, 2]. Pancreatic cancer is the fourth and fifth most common cancer in men and women, respectively [3]. Due to local invasion or...
متن کاملRupture of small cystic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor with many microtumors
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) are particularly rare. The various forms of PNETs, such as cystic degeneration, make differentiation from other similar pancreatic lesions difficult. We can detect small lesions by endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and obtain preoperative pathological diagnosis by EUS-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA). We describe, here, an interesting case of pNET in a 42-y...
