    Abstract A 78-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with a pancreatic tumor, incidentally discovered in an abdominal ultrasound exam. She was asymptomatic and without any previous personal pathological condition. The computed tomography (CT) and the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan showed a mass lesion of 4 cm in diameter, located in the pancreatic body, conditioning the invasion of the splenic vein. The patient was admitted to surgery. During the laparotomy, we found a tumoral lesion highly suspicious of pancreatic neoplasia located in the transition of the head/body of the pancreas, with an invasion of the portal vein and several peri-regional lymph nodes. We performed biopsies of the pancreatic mass and lymphadenectomy of the peri-regional pancreatic lymph nodes. Histological analysis found an inflammatory pseudotumor of the head/body of the pancreas, without signals of malign epithelial neoplasm and also without criteria for immunoglobulin G4-related disease. During the follow-up, a PET/CT and MRI confirmed that the pancreatic lesion had disappeared without any treatment. Inflammatory pseudotumor of the pancreas is a rare entity not fully understood. Despite this, the administration of corticosteroids and immunosuppressive therapy could be taken into consideration as the disease carries a risk.

    Abstract Eine 78-jährige Frau wurde mit einem Pankreastumor, der als Zufallsbefund im Rahmen einer abdominalen Ultraschalluntersuchung entdeckt worden war, in unsere Klinik eingewiesen. Sie war asymptomatisch und hatte keine Vorerkrankungen. Die Computertomographie (CT) und die Magnetresonanztomographie (MRT) zeigten einen Herdbefund von 4 cm Durchmesser im Pankreaskörper, der den Weg für eine Invasion der Milzvene bereitete. Daraufhin wurde eine Operation anberaumt. Bei der Laparotomie fand sich eine Tumorläsion, die hochverdächtig auf eine Pankreasneoplasie am Übergang vom Pankreaskopf zum -körper mit Invasion der Portalvene und mehrerer regionärer peripankreatischer Lymphknoten war. Wir entnahmen Biopsien der Pankreasläsion und führten eine Lymphadenektomie der regionären peripankreatischen Lymphknoten durch. Die histologische Untersuchung ergab einen entzündlichen Pseudotumor im Pankreaskopf/-körper ohne Hinweise auf eine maligne epitheliale Neoplasie und auch ohne die Kriterien für eine Immunglobulin-G4-assoziierte Erkrankung. Bei den im Rahmen der Nachsorge durchgeführten PET/CT- und MRT-Untersuchungen zeigte sich, dass die Pankreasläsion ohne jegliche Therapie verschwunden war. Der entzündliche Pseudotumor der Bauchspeicheldrüse ist eine seltene Entität, die noch nicht vollständig geklärt ist. Dennoch kann die Gabe von Kortikosteroiden und Immunsuppressiva erwogen werden, da die Krankheit mit einem Risiko behaftet ist.
