Lymphoepithelial cyst of the pancreas: A case report and summary of imaging features of pancreatic cysts.

Only registered users can translate articles

A lymphoepithelial cyst (LEC) of the pancreas is a benign and rare lesion that is difficult to diagnose preoperatively based on imaging studies.We report a case of a 49-year-old man who presented with weight loss and diarrhea. The serum carcinoembryonic

Pancreatic cyst fluid analysis for differential diagnosis between benign and malignant lesions.

Only registered users can translate articles

The majority of pancreatic cysts are detected incidentally when abdominal imaging is performed during unrelated procedures. The aim of the present study was to assess the diagnostic utility and clinical value of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) and amylase analysis

Clinicopathologic features and outcomes of pancreatic cysts during a 12-year period.

OBJECTIVE Pancreatic cysts are being detected more frequently with advances in abdominal imaging. We designed this study to identify the characteristics of pancreatic cysts upon long-term follow-up and to define the proper management of them. METHODS We identified 1386 patients diagnosed with

A giant abdominal cyst with raised levels of carbohydrate antigen 19-9.

A 53-year-old woman was admitted with upper abdominal discomfort. Clinical examination revealed a mass of the upper left quadrant. Computed tomography disclosed a giant cystic lesion of 19 x 16 cm compressing the body and tail of the pancreas as well as the left kidney. Endoscopic ultrasound showed

Values of carcinoembryonic antigen, elastase 1, and carbohydrate antigen determinant in aspirated pancreatic cystic fluid in the diagnosis of cysts of the pancreas.

The levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), elastase 1, and carbohydrate antigen determinant (CA 19-9) in the pancreatic cystic fluid and the serum from five patients with cystadenocarcinoma of the pancreas, one patient with retention cyst due to pancreatic carcinoma, three patients with

Asymptomatic curable pancreatic ductal carcinoma detected during the follow-up of pancreatic cysts distinct from carcinoma.

Only registered users can translate articles

Recent studies have reported that pancreatic ductal carcinomas are frequently found during the follow-up of pancreatic cysts distinct from carcinoma; however, the majority of them are detected in advanced stages. Therefore, the early detection of metachronous ductal carcinomas is one of the issues

Pancreatic Fluid Interleukin-1β Complements Prostaglandin E2 and Serum Carbohydrate Antigen 19-9 in Prediction of Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm Dysplasia.

Only registered users can translate articles

We sought to determine if interleukin (IL)-1β and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) (inflammatory mediators in pancreatic fluid) together with serum carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9 could better predict intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) dysplasia than individual biomarkers

Pancreatic cysts and pseudocysts associated with acute and chronic pancreatitis.

Only registered users can translate articles

We reviewed 106 consecutive patients with cysts or pseudocysts of the pancreas associated with pancreatitis. A pancreatic fluid collection (PFC) was defined as a limited collection containing pancreatic juice either pure or with pus or blood. Seventy-seven patients presented with chronic

True solitary pancreatic cyst in an adult: report of a case.

Only registered users can translate articles

The differential diagnosis of cystic neoformations in the pancreas is challenging. We report a case of a true solitary cyst of the pancreas in a 26-year old woman. Abdominal magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography showed a unilocular neoformation in the head of the pancreas, without

A prospective study of endoscopic ultrasonography features, cyst fluid carcinoembryonic antigen, and fluid cytology for the differentiation of small pancreatic cystic neoplasms.

Only registered users can translate articles

UNASSIGNED With improvements in imaging technologies, pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) have been increasingly identified in recent years. However, the imaging modalities used to differentiate the categories of pancreatic cysts remain limited, which may cause confusion when planning treatment. Due to

Analysis of variables associated with surgery versus observation in patients with pancreatic cystic lesions referred for endoscopic ultrasound.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) with fine-needle aspiration (FNA) for cyst fluid analysis (CFA) is often requested for pancreatic cystic lesions, to determine whether to operate or to observe. If this decision is not influenced by the EUS findings, the procedure may be unjustifiable. We aimed

[Long-Term Survival in Response to Multimodality Therapy in a Patient with Invasive Pancreatic Cancer with Cyst Formation].

Only registered users can translate articles

The patient was a 61-year-old man. Computed tomography(CT)in April 2007 revealed a pancreatic cyst in the tail of the pancreas. Rapid enlargement was noted in November 2007, and the patient was referred to the surgery department. CT showed a cystic lesion containing a nodular shadow in the

Lymphoepithelial cyst of the pancreas. Clinical, morphological, and immunohistochemical findings.

Only registered users can translate articles

Lymphoepithelial cyst of the pancreas, formerly also termed branchial cyst, is an extremely rare tumor of uncertain histogenesis. Our case, that of a 53-year-old man, is the fourth to be described. Fluid aspirated from the cyst exhibited a very high concentration of carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA;

Lymphoepithelial cyst of the pancreas associated with elevated CA 19-9 levels.

Only registered users can translate articles

An extremely rare case of a lymphoepithelial cyst associated with persistent elevation of serum carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9 levels is described. A 72-year-old man was incidentally found to have a cystic tumor in the uncus of the pancreas and to have a high serum CA 19-9 level. At 2-year follow
