Inflammatory pancreatic masses. Problems in differentiating focal pancreatitis from carcinoma

CC Neff, JF Simeone, J Wittenberg, PR Mueller and JT Ferrucci Jr

The authors studied 19 patients with focal inflammatory masses of the pancreas over an 18-month period. In 13 cases, transhepatic cholangiography and/or endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography were unsuccessful in differentiating pancreatitis from carcinoma. Eighteen patients had a history of alcohol abuse, and 12 had had pancreatitis previously. Pre-existing glandular injury appears to be a prerequisite to formation of focal inflammatory pancreatic masses.
