Abstract

Accessory spleens are present in 10% of population and are formed during embryonic development. When an accessory spleen is located in the pancreas, it may mimic a hypervascular pancreatic tumor and can make a diagnostic difficulty. Most of the cases were identified only after surgical resection. Herein, we present the case of a 52-year old man whom laparoscopic spleenpreserving distal pancreatectomy was performed with suspicion of neuroendocrine tumor. Postoperative histopathological examination revealed the intrapancreatic accessory spleen.

Abstract

Özet

Aksesuar dalak toplumun yaklaşık %10’unda görülen ve embriyolojik gelişim sırasında oluşan bir anomalidir. Pankreasta lokalize olduğunda hipervasküler pankreatik tümörü taklit edebilir ve tanısal güçlüğe neden olabilir. Vakaların çoğu cerrahi rezeksiyondan sonra tanımlanır. Bu yazımızda nöroendokrin tümör şüphesiyle laparoskopik dalak koruyucu distal pankreatektomi yapılan 52 yaşındaki bir erkek olguyu sunuyoruz. Postoperatif histopatolojik inceleme ile lezyonun intrapankreatik aksesuar dalak olduğu açığa çıktı.

Abstract

Accessory spleens are present in 10% of population and are formed during embryonic development. When an accessory spleen is located in the pancreas, it may mimic a hypervascular pancreatic tumor and can make a diagnostic difficulty. Most of the cases were identified only after surgical resection. Herein, we present the case of a 52-year old man whom laparoscopic spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy was performed with suspicion of neuroendocrine tumor. Postoperative histopathological examination revealed the intrapancreatic accessory spleen.
