“…To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of CT findings of feline IPAS. Differentiation from splenosis was based on the location of the lesion within the left pancreatic lobe, with no other lesions from the omentum or adjacent viscera and no evidence or prior history of splenic trauma in this case [ 36 ]. The CT values of IPAS did not exceed those of normal splenic parenchyma and showed similar variability in all post-contrast series.…”

An 11-year-old neutered male Domestic Shorthair cat presented with a 3-month history of hypoglycemia, two episodes of seizure, and intermittent tick-like signs. Serum biochemistry revealed severe hypoglycemia associated with high insulin concentrations. Dynamic abdominal computed tomography (CT) indicated two pancreatic masses, which were enhanced most during the late arterial phase but had different degrees and variations of attenuation. Partial pancreatectomy was performed.Histopathology and immunohistochemistry confirmed that one mass was an insulinoma and the other was an ectopic splenic tissue, consistent with the differences in imaging findings. When an intrapancreatic lesion with hyper-attenuation on dynamic abdominal CT is detected, not only insulinoma or metastasis of malignancies but also intrapancreatic accessory spleen (IPAS) should be considered as differential diagnoses.
