  • Title: [The functionally inactive endocrine pancreas tumor].
    Author: Meyer D, Engemann R, Marx A, Thiede A.
    Journal: Chirurg; 1994 Oct; 65(10):856-60. PubMed ID: 7821044.
    Abstract:
    Endocrine tumors of the pancreas are extremely rare (1-3%). We present two cases with functional inactive tumors--one benign and one malignant--, which were immunohistologically secreting glucagon without having clinical symptoms. Differential diagnosis, operative strategy and therapy of endocrine tumors of the pancreas are discussed.
