[Hemangioma of the pancreas]

A 62 year old woman lacking any alteration in her general condition and without digestive disorders was found fortuitously to have a large mass in the epigastric region. Complementary investigations localized the lesion to the peritoneal cavity, either in the gastrocolic omentum or the mesentery, close to the pancreas. Imaging showed a multicystic heterogeneous structure. A large hemangioma of pancreatic origin was removed at operation.
