Usefulness of endoscopic ultrasonography for differentiating between non-functional pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasm and intrapancreatic accessory spleen [PDF]
In pancreatic hypervascular masses, it is often difficult to differentiate pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasm (PanNEN) and intrapancreatic accessory spleen (IPAS) before surgery because of their similar features, such as a round shape and early ...
