title: Unique appearance of the duodenal papilla in pancreatic cystadenocarcinoma.
abstract: Cystadenocarcinoma of the pancreas is uncommon, but should be positively identified and distinguished from other cystic lesions of the pancreas because of its good surgical prognosis in comparison with pancreatic adenocarcinoma. I report two cases of cystadenocarcinoma of the head of the pancreas, in which a previously undescribed abnormal appearance of the duodenal papilla was characteristic.
