Islet cell tumors (ICTs) are rare tumors of the pancreas. Association of this type of tumor with tuberous sclerosis is extremely rare. Only 13 cases of pancreatic ICT with tuberous sclerosis have so far been documented in the literature. However, awareness of the association of tuberous sclerosis and ICT is important for early diagnosis and appropriate treatment of this condition. This article presents the case of a 63-year-old female with angiomyolipoma (AML) of the kidney and liver, calcified subependymal nodules and a large mass in the pancreas, which was proven to be an ICT on histopathological examination.
胰岛细胞瘤(ICTs)是胰腺的罕见肿瘤。这类肿瘤与结节性硬化症的关联极为罕见。迄今为止,文献中仅记载了13例胰腺ICT合并结节性硬化症的病例。然而,了解结节性硬化症与ICT的关联对于该疾病的早期诊断和恰当治疗至关重要。本文介绍了一名63岁女性的病例,该患者患有肾和肝的血管平滑肌脂肪瘤(AML)、钙化的室管膜下结节以及胰腺内的一个大肿块,经组织病理学检查证实为ICT。
