Abstract

A 76-year-old man was admitted for upper abdominal pain. An ultrasound examination revealed a hypoechoic region in the pancreatic head. Computed tomography revealed a low density mass, which was a hypervascular lesion. Angiography showed tumor vessels supplied by the anterior superior pan-creaticoduodenal artery. Pancreatoduodenectomy was performed. Histologically, the tumor showed a proliferation of neoplastic cells with hyperchromatic nuclei of various sizes. Immunostaining method showed some tumor cells to be reactive for somatostatin. We therefore diagnosed this case to be an asymptomatic somatostatinoma of the pancreas.
