Summary
This case study details a non-functional malignant delta-cell nesidioblastoma, a rare pancreatic tumor. Findings highlight imaging differences between functional and non-functional tumors, crucial for diagnosis and treatment planning.
Area of Science:
- Oncology
- Gastroenterology
- Radiology
Background:
- Nesidioblastomas are rare pancreatic tumors, often functional, but non-functional malignant variants present diagnostic challenges.
- Malignant delta-cell nesidioblastomas are exceptionally rare, with limited literature on their clinical and radiological presentation.
- Clinical manifestations like jaundice and weight loss can indicate advanced malignancy.
