MUCIN HYPERSECRETING CARCINOMA OF THE PANCREAS PENETRATING TO THE STOMACH AND DUODENUM-REPORT OF A RESECTED CASE-

A case of mucin hypersecreting invasive carcinoma of the pancreas penetrating into the stomach and duodenum in a 56-year-old Japanese man is reported. The patient survive for more than five years after a complete resection. It has been reported that the clinical course of patients with non-invasive mucin hypersecreting carcinoma of the pancreas is favorable, whereas that with invasive mucin hypersecreting carcinoma of the pancreas is as dismal as usual pancreatic carcinomas. In this case report, we recommend a complete resection even for invasive mucin hypersecreting carcinoma of the pancreas that can provide a long survival.
