Abstract

 

Introduction: Endocrine microadenomatosis is defined as the presence of multiple, usually innumerable, microadenomas. Endocrine microadenoma is a neuroendocrine neoplasm measuring less than 5mm in size.
Case report: This article showed pathohistological case report of pancreatic endocrine microadenomatosis in addition to synchronous well differentiated neuroendocrine tumor of the pancreas in 49-year-old female patient. Histological appearance of tumor was typical and was positive to neuroendocrine immunohistochemical antibodies.
Conclusion: Pancreatic endocrine microadenomatosis in addition to synchronous well differentiated neuroendocrine tumor of the pancreas is rare, so this case is presented.

 

 

Key words:

pancreas, microadenomatosis, NET

 

 

Sažetak

 

Uvod: Endokrina mikroadenomatoza pankreasa predstavlja pojavu brojnih mikroadenoma porekla neuroendokrinih ćelija, koji su po definiciji prečnika do 5mm.
Prikaz slučaja: U ovom članku je prikazan patohistološki slučaj mikroadenomatoze sa sinhronim dobro diferentovanim neuroendokrinim tumorom pankreasa kod pacijenta ženskog pola, starosti 49 godina. Histološka slika tumora i imunohistohemijski profil ćelija su bili tipični za navedene neuroendokrine lezije.
Zaključak: Endokrina mikroadenomatoza pankreasa sa sinhronim dobro diferentovanim neuroendokrinim tumorom je niske incidence i otuda je odabrana za prikaz slučaja.
