Popis: | We encountered a recurrent case of benign solitary insulinoma in the pancreatic tail, which may have been caused by an inadequate surgical margin in the use of an ultrasonic dissector. A 45-year-old man was referred with hypoglycemia and diagnosed solitary insulinoma in the pancreas. Laparoscopic pancreatic enucleation was performed using an ultrasonic dissector. The tumor was extracted and the surgical margins were microscopically negative. Six years later, he presented with hypoglycemia again. Multiple small well-enhanced lesions were detected by computed tomography distant from the resection stump of the first operation. He underwent resection of all visible lesions with omentum and wide excision of the soft tissue surrounding the pancreas after preoperative arterial stimulation and venous sampling test. The postoperative course of the second operation was uncomplicated and the patient presents no sign of hypoglycemia after 12 months. |
