| description | This section features outstanding photographs of clinical materials selected for their educational value or message, or possibly their rarity. The images are accompanied by brief case reports (limit 2 typed pages, 4 references). Our readers are invited to submit items for consideration. The patient was a 63-year-old man who in 1992 went to an outside hospital with vague abdominal discomfort. A computed tomography (CT) scan demonstrated a 4-cm mass near the tail of the pancreas. Laboratory studies revealed a white blood cell count (WBC) of 22,600/mL. The mass was excised, including a distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy. Postoperatively, the patient's WBC normalized. Histology was read as a nonspecific inflammatory process. In 1996 he went to the outside hospital with an episode of upper gastrointestinal bleeding and ongoing melena. His laboratory findings revealed a WBC count of 33,000/mL and a hemoglobin level of 4 g/dL. Upper endoscopy demonstrated a mass eroding into the greater curvature of the stomach. After stabilization, a subtotal gastrectomy with partial excision of a retroperitoneal mass was performed. Histology demonstrated a low-grade malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH). The patient recovered, but his WBC remained elevated. A CT scan demonstrated a residual 14-cm retroperitoneal mass. The tumor was thought to be unresectable, and the patient was offered no further therapy. |
