Pancreatic cancer is still considered to be one of the leading causes of cancer deaths. The most common of all the different types of pancreatic cancer is ductal original malignant tumors, and their clinical features are commonly characterized. However, for the rare tumors in the pancreatic region, the clinical features often vary, and detection of the cancers are detected late. Limited data are available to guide the management of very rare neoplasms of the pancreas. Therefore, to recognize or detect the rare tumors in the pancreatic region are of importance for the clinical practice.
胰腺癌仍然被认为是癌症死亡的主要原因之一。在所有不同类型的胰腺癌中,最常见的是导管原位恶性肿瘤,其临床特征也已得到普遍描述。然而,对于胰腺区域的罕见肿瘤,其临床特征往往各不相同,而且癌症的发现通常较晚。目前可用于指导胰腺极罕见肿瘤治疗的数据有限。因此,识别或检测胰腺区域的罕见肿瘤对临床实践具有重要意义。
