Comatogenic Hypoglycemia Secondary to Paraneoplastic IGF2 Secretion by a Malignant Solitary Pancreatic Fibrous Tumor

Solitary fibrous tumors are rare mesenchymal tumors, most often developing in the pleura, but sometimes appearing in soft tissue or parenchymal orga1853-1856ns, where their diagnosis is often problematic. Exceptionally they have been described in the pancreas. We report the case of a malignant solitary fibrous tumor of the pancreas occurring in a 58-year-old woman who consulted for comatogenic hypoglycemia associated with abdominal pain. Surgical resection of the tumor was performed, but the patient died of postoperative complications.

Abstract

Solitary fibrous tumors are rare mesenchymal tumors, most often developing in the pleura, but sometimes appearing in soft tissue or parenchymal orga1853-1856ns, where their diagnosis is often problematic. Exceptionally they have been described in the pancreas. We report the case of a malignant solitary fibrous tumor of the pancreas occurring in a 58-year-old woman who consulted for comatogenic hypoglycemia associated with abdominal pain. Surgical resection of the tumor was performed, but the patient died of postoperative complications.
