Synchronous pancreatic serous cystic tumor, intraductal papillary mucinous tumor and gastric carcinoma: report of a case.
Synchronous cystic tumors of the pancreas are rarely reported in the literature. We report an unusual case of synchronous pancreatic serous cystic tumor (SCT) and intraductal pancreatic mucinous tumor (IPMT) with concomitant gastric carcinoma. This study highlights the importance of careful intra-operative and pathologic examination for concomitant pancreatic neoplasms.
