Popis: The patient was a 29-year-old female with a chief complaint of transient right-sided abdominal pain. A CT scan revealed homogenously contrasted tumor of 4 cm in diameter with smooth margins and clear borders in the lower part of the pancreatic head. The tumor was contrast-enhanced on MRI and stained on abdominal angiography using the proximal branch of the right colonic artery as a feeding vessel. PET scan showed moderate accumulation. Malignancy could not be ruled out, and tumor resection including the ascending colon was performed. The pathological diagnosis was hyaline vascular-type Castleman's disease in the mesentery of the colon.
