We present the case of a young patient with acute pancreatitis (AP) secondary to osteosarcoma metastasis. It is necessary to assess tumor etiology in the study of any acute pancreatitis without clear cause. Pancreatic metastases are rare and difficult to diagnose and differentiate from other primary tumors such as neuroendocrine tumors (NET). It is essential to have a high degree of clinical suspicion and the use of radiological and endoscopic ultrasound imaging techniques.
我们报告了一例继发于骨肉瘤转移的急性胰腺炎(AP)的年轻患者。在研究任何原因不明的急性胰腺炎时,有必要评估肿瘤病因。胰腺转移瘤很少见,难以诊断,并且与神经内分泌肿瘤(NET)等其他原发性肿瘤难以区分。高度的临床怀疑以及使用影像学和内镜超声检查技术至关重要。
