Microcystic adenoma or serous cystadenoma (SCA) is an uncommon tumor type, accounting for only 1-2% of pancreatic exocrine neoplasms. Usually unifocal, SCAs present as single, large, well-demarcated, multiloculated, cystic tumors, 1-25 cm in size.
A 73-year-old man initially presented with epigastric abdominal pain and was diagnosed with SCA involving the whole pancreas. Eleven months later, he presented with obstructive jaundice, and total pancreatectomy was performed. The removed tissue allowed histological verification of pancreatic SCA. Histopathological examination showed both microcysts and macrocysts, lined by cuboidal epithelium, with optically clear cytoplasm and the absence of detectable mitosis or necrosis.
Thus, although relatively rare, pancreatic SCA is one of the differential diagnoses of epigastric abdominal pain; we recommend early surgical intervention for symptomatic pancreatic SCA.
微囊性腺瘤或浆液性囊腺瘤(SCA)是一种罕见的肿瘤类型,仅占胰腺外分泌肿瘤的1%-2%。SCA通常为单发病灶,表现为单个、较大、边界清晰、多房性的囊性肿瘤,大小为1-25厘米。
一名73岁男性最初因上腹部疼痛就诊,被诊断为累及整个胰腺的SCA。11个月后,他出现梗阻性黄疸,接受了全胰切除术。切除的组织经组织学检查证实为胰腺SCA。组织病理学检查显示既有微囊肿又有大囊肿,内衬立方上皮,细胞质透明,未检测到有丝分裂或坏死。
因此,尽管胰腺SCA相对罕见,但它是上腹部疼痛的鉴别诊断之一;我们建议对有症状的胰腺SCA进行早期手术干预。
