We describe a case of malignant endocrine tumor of the pancreas associated with von Recklinghausens disease. A 66-year-old woman with familial von Recklinghausens disease was admitted to our hospital with weight loss and lower abdominal pain. Endoscopy revealed a submucosal tumor in the second part of the duodenum. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed a heterogeneous low-density tumor, measuring 20 15 mm, in the head of the pancreas, and metastatic lymphadenopathy. Angiography showed faint tumor staining without encasement or apparent increase in vascularity. Pancreatoduodenectomy was performed. Macroscopically, there was a solid tumor, measuring 20 18 mm, in the head of the pancreas. Histologically, a malignant endocrine tumor was shown, with direct invasion to the duodenum, and lymph node metastases. This is the thirteenth case of pancreatic malignant tumor and the fourth case of pancreatic endocrine tumor associated with von Recklinghausens disease reported in the world literature.
