Abstrakt: Serous cystadenocarcinoma (SCAC) of the pancreas is rare, with only 35 cases reported in the literature. We present a case of SCAC, comparing the clinical presentation, management and molecular features of this case to a series of serous cystadenoma (SCA), which may be a precursor. Compared with SCAs (n  = 5), SCAC was larger (11.5 vs median 3.6 cm). The case of SCAC invaded the spleen and exhibited distant metastasis, a requirement for diagnosis since pathologic features are otherwise indistinguishable from SCA. VHL mutations have been reported in about half of SCA in the literature. Accordingly, we identified either somatic or germline VHL mutations in 3 of 5 SCAs (60%), yet no pathogenic mutation was identified in the SCAC. A somatic mutation in IDH1 was found in SCAC only. This has been associated with multiple malignancies, is targetable with the drug ivosidenib and should be studied as a progression factor in SCAC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
