Mucinous cystic neoplasm (MCN) of the pancreas usually affects female patients and is characterized by an ovarian-type stroma. From literature review, only 9 cases of MCNs have been reported in male patients.
We describe the 10th case of a MCN in a 65-year-old male patient who underwent a distal pancreatectomy with spleen resection and standard lymphadenectomy.
MCN may rarely regard male patients, probably for embryological abnormalities.
胰腺黏液性囊性肿瘤(MCN)通常影响女性患者,其特征为卵巢型间质。经文献回顾,仅9例男性患者的MCN病例被报道。
我们描述第10例MCN病例,患者为一名65岁男性,接受了胰体尾切除术、脾脏切除术及标准淋巴结清扫术。
MCN可能很少发生于男性患者,可能是由于胚胎发育异常。
