SENRA ARMAS, Luis et al. Neuroendocrine pancreatic tumor in a patient with Von Hippel Lindau disease. Rev cubana med [online]. 2008, vol.47, n.2. ISSN 0034-7523.
The case of a 30-year-old patient with family history of Von Hippel Lindau disease (VHL) that underwent surgery 8 years ago due to hemangioblastoma of the cerebellum was presented. In a periodical screening with echography for early diagnosis of abdominal masses, a tumoral image of the pancreas was detected. It was confirmed by CAT and fine needle cytology controlled by echography was performed. A neuroendocrine tumor of the pancreas was diagnosed and proposed for surgical treatment.
