Successful management of a pancreatic mature cystic teratoma with Whipple procedure: A case report
This report describes a rare case of a pancreatic mature cystic teratoma, one of only 52 documented cases. Despite the absence of significant symptoms, imaging revealed a large mass, and Whipple procedure was performed due to its complex relationship with vital structures. This case illustrates the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges associated with such rare tumors.
