We report a case of a 70-year-old man who presented with abdominal pain and weight loss, with initial imaging showing simultaneous mass lesions in the pancreas and lungs along with extensive lymphadenopathy in the thorax up to the left supraclavicular region. Core biopsies of the left supraclavicular lymph node showed squamous cell carcinoma, which required differentiation between secondary and primary pancreatic neoplasms. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided sampling using a novel fine needle biopsy system was key to making a definite histological diagnosis and determining the best treatment plan.
我们报告一例70岁男性患者,其表现为腹痛和体重减轻,初始影像学检查显示胰腺和肺部同时存在肿块性病变,以及胸部直至左锁骨上区域的广泛淋巴结病。左锁骨上淋巴结的核心活检显示为鳞状细胞癌,这需要区分继发性和原发性胰腺肿瘤。使用新型细针活检系统进行内镜超声引导下采样是做出明确组织学诊断并确定最佳治疗方案的关键。
