The Continuum

The role of serous tumors of low malignant potential (LMP) in the development of invasive epithelial cancer of the ovary is debatable. This review summarizes the current clinical, genetic, and genomic evidence for the existence of a continuum comprising both LMP serous tumors and low-grade serous ovarian carcinomas.

During 05 years period from January 2003 to December 2007,45 cases of Ca. Pancreas were reported to LINAR and only onecase of Pseudo Papillary Tumour of Pancreas is registered. It is a rare, low malignant potential pancreatic tumour. It has unknown pathogenesisand found in young females. We report a case of 24 years old female, who presented with pain in abdomen and low grade fever of 07 monthsduration. Lepratomy and excisional biopsy was done. H/P came as Pseudo Papillary Tumour of Pancreas. At presentation no any L.N. werefound enlarged. Like other malignant pancreatic tumours, this neoplasm does not metastasize. Its definitive treatment is complete surgicalremoval, no any role of chemotherapy because it doesn't metastasized, limited role of radiotherapy in local invasive tumour or in residual mass.
