SS-ASVS is a useful method for detailed evaluation of overproduction of insulin from pancreatic insulinomas and their localization. When the pancreatic insulinoma is situated in the pancreatic body or tail, the localization is more accurately made by SS-ASVS than by conventional ASVS.
We present two cases of surgically proven lymphoepithelial cyst (LEC) of the pancreas that had a lipid component visualized by CT and MRI. Identification of this component in a pancreatic cystic lesion is a key to favor the diagnosis of LEC or splenic epidermoid cyst over other cystic lesions when the lesion is noted in an elderly patient.
HFA is an extrahepatic pathway which runs to the abdominal wall. Before chemoembolization of the middle or left hepatic artery for hepatic malignancy, the HFA should be recognized.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
