| Popis: |
Intrapancreatic accessory spleens are common asymptomatic masses that generally cause no problems. Usually, they are incidentally found on imaging as a pancreatic mass and they pose a diagnostic and management dilemma due to equivocal imaging findings. Evolving imaging modalities and increasing use of endoscopic ultrasound with fine needle aspirate may result in the avoidance of unnecessary operations and surveillance. We report a case of distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy for a pancreatic tail solid lesion. |
