“…As in our case, most patients with pancreatic hemangioma present with vague abdominal pain, although one case presented with melena and hematemesis, and another with nausea and thrombocytopenia [8, 10]. Diagnostic imaging modalities used to aid in diagnosis illustrate the expected use of contemporarily available state-of-the-art imaging modalities, from plain films in the 1960s to MRI and three-dimensional multiplanar CT reconstruction today.…”

“…Generally, a conservative approach is justified for hemangiomas given the benign nature of the lesion. However, there is a risk of bleeding, and this has been a presenting sign [8]. In this case reported by Ringoir et al, definitive resection was avoided given the patient's age and the considerably higher morbidity and mortality of pancreatic resection at the time of operation in 1959 when compared to today [22].…”

We report an adult pancreatic hemangioma diagnosed on pathological specimen review following pylorus preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy for a symptomatic cystic mass in the head of the pancreas. Eight cases of adult pancreatic hemangioma have been reported in literature since 1939. Presenting symptoms, radiographic diagnosis, pathologic characteristics, and treatment of adult pancreatic hemagiomas are discussed following review of all published cases.

Rare case of adult pancreatic haemangioma and literature review

Pancreatic haemangiomas are benign vascular tumours very rare in adults. Twenty-two cases are described in the literature. The symptoms are non-specific, and therefore rarely clinically suspected, and the vast majority are incidental findings in imaging tests such as ultrasound, CT, angiography or MRI. They appear on CT as a cystic lesion with contrast enhancement in the arterial phase. We present the case of a 36-year-old male patient with no history of disease, referred with lumbar pain and suspected renal calculus after tomography showing hypervascular enhancement in the pancreatic body and infiltrative lesion (possible neuroendocrine neoplasia) on MRI and biliopancreatic echoendoscopy. He was submitted to laparotomy with subtotal pancreatectomy and splenectomy and satisfactory evolution.
