[Enucleation of intraductal papillary-mucinous tumor of the head of the pancreas. Report of 2 cases]
Abstract
Intraductal papillary-mucinous tumors of the pancreas are characterized by malignant transformation of unpredictable occurrence because of their unknown natural history. Surgical treatment is duodenopancreatectomy or left pancreatectomy even for benign tumors. We report 2 cases of benign intraductal papillary-mucinous tumor confined to the head of the pancreas and treated by enucleation.
