ABSTRACT
Pancreatic follicular dendritic cell sarcoma (FDCS) is a rare neoplasm with unclear pathological characteristics. In this study, we report one case of pancreatic FDCS and review published cases to summarize the characteristics and treatment of pancreatic FDCS. A man in his early 30 s was admitted for jaundice, abdominal fullness, and weight loss for 15 days. Computed tomography revealed a large capsule solid mass in the pancreatic head together with a dilated bile duct and enlarged retroperitoneal lymph nodes. Serum biochemistry revealed high total bilirubin levels (313.9 µmol/L) and normal tumor marker levels. Pancreatoduodenectomy was performed, but no chemotherapy was administrated at the patient's behest. The pathologic diagnosis was pancreatic FDCS infiltrating the duodenal seromuscular layer and common bile duct. The patient presented with liver metastasis 3 months after surgery and died 8 months after surgery from multiorgan failure. Pancreatic FDCS is a rare disease with high invasiveness. Our previous case exhibited paraneoplastic syndrome together with this disease, and further investigation is needed to confirm whether paraneoplastic syndrome is a typical syndrome of pancreatic FDCS.
