Wirsungocele has recently been shown to be associated with acute recurrent, severe necrotizing pancreatitis and chronic pancreatitis or chronic pain in abdomen. Till to date there is no report on association of wirsungocele with an ampullary neuroendocrine tumor, and recurrent pancreatitis.
We report a first ever case of wirsungocele diagnosed on EUS, its association with neuroendocrine tumor of ampulla and recurrent acute pancreatitis.
This case report highlights the diagnostic utility of EUS in diagnosing small ampullary pathology like wirsungocele and neuroendocrine tumor.
最近研究表明,胰腺导管囊肿与急性复发性、严重坏死性胰腺炎以及慢性胰腺炎或慢性腹痛有关。迄今为止,尚无关于胰腺导管囊肿与壶腹神经内分泌肿瘤及复发性胰腺炎相关性的报道。
我们报告了首例经超声内镜诊断的胰腺导管囊肿病例,以及其与壶腹神经内分泌肿瘤和复发性急性胰腺炎的相关性。
本病例报告强调了超声内镜在诊断胰腺导管囊肿和神经内分泌肿瘤等小的壶腹病变中的诊断价值。
