Pancreatic Hemangioma

Abstract

Hemangioma is extremely seldom localized in pancreas. In the analysis of PubMed, Scopus and eLibrary databases 53 cases of pancreatic hemangioma have been revealed since 1924. Tumors are predominantly revealed in women aged from 30 till 79 years. All radiological diagnostic methods may be used to diagnose pancreatic hemangioma. Diagnostic criteria don't differ from those in case of other localizations of hemangioma. MRI is the most effective method of pancreatic hemangioma diagnostics because it gives the chance to diagnose neoplasm effectively and also to verify a phase of its development without radiation exposure. Literature review and case report are presented in the article.
