Autoimmune pancreatitis is a unique type of chronic pancreatitis, which is rarely associated with pseudocyst. A 48-year-old lady was admitted to our department with a rapidly growing cystic mass in the pancreatic tail with an elevated concentration of serum carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9). She
OBJECTIVE
It has been suggested that activity of pancreatic enzymes and concentrations of tumoral markers in cyst fluid may help to distinguish pseudocyst, serous, and mucinous cystadenomas. The aim of this study was to prospectively assess the reliability of preoperative biochemical and tumor
Plachitin formed of both poly-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (chitin) and cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (CDDP), was used as an arterial chemoembolization therapy against unresectable liver cancer. One gram of Plachitin contained 300 mg of CDDP. The Plachitin particle was 50-100 microns in diameter. Plachitin
Introduction: Pancreatic pseudocyst is one of the most common cystic lesions. It always occurs following pancreatitis and is rarely found in combination with pancreatic adenocarcinoma. The coexistence of exocrine and neuroendocrine tumors
Carbohydrate antigen CA19-9 is commonly used in the diagnosis of pancreatic and biliary malignancies. However, increases in its level in benign conditions such as acute cholangitis or pancreatitis have also been reported. A 79-year-old woman presented with cholangitis and a pancreatic pseudocyst

BACKGROUND
This study aims to determine the use of preoperative clinical, biochemical, and cross-sectional imaging features for predicting malignancy in cystic lesions of the pancreas (CLP).
METHODS
Two hundred twenty patients who underwent operations for CLP or suspected CLP were reviewed. Patients
Gastric duplication cyst (GDC) in an adult can have several clinical presentations. A review of the literature showed previously reported cases of GDC presenting as pancreatic pseudocyst or with greatly raised concentrations of carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9). It is often difficult to
