“…This has not been the experience of all however, e.g., Carling Rock, and Hicks (1925) and Smith (1958). The absence of diabetes is not what might be expected in the light of previous articles and reviews, e.g., six out of 28 cases were diabetic in the series of Benson and Gordon (1947) and three out of five in that of Bowers et al (1942). Only one of the cases in the present series had transient hyperglycaemia while recovering from the excision of the tumour.…”

“…Thus Bowers, Lord, and McSwain (1942) reported five cases of cystadenoma and Mahorner and Mattson (1931) four of cystadenocarcinoma, while many reports have been concerned with even smaller numbers of cases. Some authors have supplemented their own observations by an analysis of accounts published by others, e.g., Zintel, Enterline, and Rhoads (1954) in the case of cystadenoma, and Comes and Azzopardi (1959) in the case of cystadenocarcinoma, to quote some fairly recent examples.…”

The cystadenomas were of two types: 1 Tumours with small loculi lined by cubical epithelium, in which there was little secretion of mucus by the epithelium but abundant mucoid stroma. There were six of these tumours and we have no evidence of malignant change in this type. 2 Tumours with relatively large cystic spaces filled with mucus and lined by tall, mucus-secreting epithelium. There were eight of these, and the possibility of malignant transformation in this type of tumour is indicated by the finding that in three cases of cystadenocarcinoma two appeared to have been preceded by simple mucus-secreting cystadenomas.Signs of recent or old haemorrhage were common in both types of cystadenoma and also in the cystadenocarcinomas.

“…Death occurred very quickly and, at necropsy, the tumour shown in Fig. 10 Benson and Gordon (1947) and three out of five in that of Bowers et al (1942). Only one of the cases in the present series had transient hyperglycaemia while recovering from the excision of the tumour.…”

“…Among the previously recorded cases the most common symptoms were (a) pain, generally of a vague character, and indefinitely related to meals; (b) dyspeptic symptoms attributable to disease in the biliary tract, such as gallstones; (c) a palpable mass; (d) a diabetic si ndrome of variable severity (Carling and Hicks, 1925;Bowers et al, 1942;Benson and Gordon, 1947;Jemerin and Samuels, 1948;Herrman and Asbell, 1949;Johnson and Gibson, 1950). In all these cases one or other of the first three complaints caused the patient to come under the care of a surgeon from the outset; the diabetic state was usually associated with the main symptom, and indicated that the pancreas was involved in the pathological process.…”
