BACKGROUND: Preoperative vascular embolization is an effective strategy for managing meningiomas, neck paragangliomas, renal cell carcinomas, and bone metastasis by reducing the intraoperative bleeding volume and operation time. Although hypervascular tumors also occur in the pancreas, preoperative embolization for these tumors is not commonly practiced. We herein present a case of a giant serous cystic neoplasm (SCN) of the pancreas with significant arterial vascularity that was managed with preoperative interventional radiology and subsequently resected via pancreaticoduodenectomy.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 60-year-old man presented with an 8-cm hypervascular tumor located at the head of the pancreas, identified as an SCN on pathologic examination. The tumor had increased by 13 mm over 5 years, necessitating surgical intervention. Computed tomography revealed a substantial blood supply to the tumor from the dorsal pancreatic artery and gastroduodenal artery, both branches of the superior mesenteric artery. To mitigate the risk of severe intraoperative bleeding from this giant hypervascular tumor, branches of the dorsal pancreatic artery and gastroduodenal artery were embolized using metallic coils and further secured using a gelatin sponge 1 day prior to pancreatectomy. During the laparotomy, the tumor appeared to have decreased in size, likely because of reduced distension and congestion. Despite significant adhesions to surrounding tissues secondary to prolonged compression and inflammation, the pancreaticoduodenectomy was completed successfully in 5 h and 15 min with blood loss of 763 mL. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 15 without complications.
CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative arterial embolization for hypervascular pancreatic tumors might control the risk of massive intraoperative bleeding, contributing to a favorable postoperative outcome. Utilizing interventional radiology for preoperative inflow control is one of the beneficial strategies for pancreatectomy in patients with a giant SCN.
