ABSTRACT
A woman in her 70s was referred for examination of liver dysfunction. A cystic lesion with irregular contrast was observed at the pancreas head. The bile and pancreatic ducts were obstructed by the lesion. Part of the branch of the pancreatic duct at the pancreas head, continuous with the main pancreatic duct, was observed to be extended by using pancreatography. Pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed, and a diagnosis of invasive carcinoma from an intraductal papillary-mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) was made. Postoperative pathological diagnosis showed 16b1 inter-node metastasis. Liver and lung metastases were also detected after surgery; nevertheless, long-term survival was achieved for 5 years and 2 months by using various treatment modalities.
