title: Mucinous cystadenoma of the pancreas. Endoscopy as an aid to diagnosis.
abstract: Pancreatitis and pancreatic insufficiency have not previously been associated with mucinous cystadenoma of the pancreas. This report describes a patient with a long history of chronic pancreatitis whose course was complicated by obstructive jaundice and cholangitis and pancreatic insufficiency. Endoscopy with retrograde cholangiopancreatography provided the correct diagnosis, and the findings are described.
