Abstract

B Introduction: b Pancreatic schwannoma (PSN) is a rare, well-encapsulated tumor of the pancreas. Preoperative diagnosis of this tumor is uncommon due to marked degenerative changes, its rarity, overlapping clinical and imaging features with other pancreatic neoplasms, hence leading to major surgical resection in most cases. Based on these features, diagnosis of benign pancreatic mass lesion possibly neurogenic tumor was made. [Extracted from the article]
