Abstract

We herein present a patient referred to our clinic with the complaints of flatulence and left upper quadrant abdominal pain who was diagnosed to have pancreatic cystic neoplasia radiologically. The septated cyst was defined to be 9x12 cm in diameter by abdominal computed tomography and by ultrasonography originated from the tail of the pancreas. Distal pancreatectomy procedure with complete resection of the cystic lesion was performed in this patient. Pathologic examination revealed pancreatic cystic lymphangioma (PCL). Although PCL is very rare in adult patients, it can cause confusion due to the presence of other cystic pathologies of the pancreas. Complete excision of the cyst is mandatory to prevent recurrences. In our case, no recurrence was detected after a two-year follow-up.

Özet

Batın sol üst kadrandra ağrı ve hazımsızlık şikayetleri ile kliniğimize refere edilen ve mevcut radyolojik incelemelerinde pankreasın kistik neoplazisi tanısı alan bir olguyu sunmayı amaçladık. Batın bilgisayarlı tomografisinde ve ultrasonografide izlenen 9x12 cm boyutlarındaki septalı kistin pankreas kuyruğundan kaynaklandığı saptandı. Hasta ameliyata alınarak distal pankreatektomi işlemi yapıldı. Patolojik tanı pankreası n kistik lenfanjiomu olarak bildirildi. Erişkin hastalarda pankreasın kistik lenfanjiomları nadir görülse de, pankreasın diğer kistik patolojileri ile karışmaktadır. Kesin tanı kistin çıkarılması ve histopatolojik değerlendirme ile oluşturulmaktadır. Nükslerin önlenmesi için kistin tam rezeksiyonu gerekmektedir. Olgumuzda da 2 yıllık takip sonrası nüks saptanmamıştır.
