pubmed:abstractText |
An 88 year old woman presented comatose, hypothermic and hyperglycaemic. She died soon after admission and at autopsy recent small bowel infarction was found. The superior mesenteric artery was encased in a dense pancreatic mass and there was marked luminal narrowing of the vessel. Histology revealed a pancreatic glucagonoma which had metastasized to colonic submucosa and serosa. Glucagonoma is a rare tumour and this presentation of small bowel infarction associated with pancreatic glucagonoma would appear to be a unique event.
