Abstract

Serous cystadenomas of the pancreas are rare cystic tumours. The microcystic form of serous cystadenoma is the most common and easy to diagnose radiologically. On the other hand, the macrocystic form of serous cystadenoma can be confused with other macrocystic lesions of the pancreas with malignant potential. the aim of this work is to highlight the limitations of paraclinical examinations in establishing a precise preoperative diagnosis. We report the case of a 34-year-old female patient admitted with abdominal pain and a unilocular macrocystic serous cystadenoma of the pancreas, diagnosed on histological examination of the operative specimen. Paraclinical examinations, including ultrasound, CT scan, MRI and echo-endoscopy, were inconclusive. The difficulty lies in preoperative diagnosis.
