Pancreatic Lipoma: A Pancreatic Incidentaloma Diagnosis with Computed Tomography

Lipoma of the pancreas is a rare benign tumour which is usually discovered incidentally on imaging. We present a case of an incidentally discovered pancreatic lipoma in a 79-year-old man with non-metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma who was referred to radiology for follow-up imaging. Fat-containing tumours originating from the pancreas are very rare. Most lipomas show characteristic features on imaging that allow their differentiation. We present the imaging features of a pancreatic lipoma on ultrasound, CT and MRI, discuss the differential diagnosis, and provide a brief review of the literature.

Metachronous Development of Meningothelial Meningioma, Basal Cell Carcinoma, and Glioblastoma Multiforme in a Patient with Pancreatic Incidentaloma

We report the unique case of a 61-year-old male patient with known pancreatic incidentaloma who additionally developed 3 other histologically different tumors: left sphenoid wing meningothelial meningioma, basal cell carcinoma of the occiput, and right occipital lobe glioblastoma multiforme. The latter were totally removed with a favorable clinical outcome. The patient’s family history was unremarkable, and no data on any previous head and neck irradiation were found.
