Abstract:

CASE REPORT The patient, a 35-year-old woman, had a long history of postprandial epigastric pain and pressure. She had not had jaundice or overt pancreatitis but did have occasional fever. The patient underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy a year previously for similar pain associated with nausea and vomiting. Although some of her symptoms abated, the pain persisted and a subsequent endoscopy and CT showed a duodenal mass. CT also showed extensive fatty replacement of the pancreas. She was referred to our institution for EUS.
