Serous cystadenoma (SCA) of the pancreas is a benign nonmucinous cystic pancreatic neoplasm and the second most common type of pancreatic cystic neoplasm. Conservative management is advocated in asymptomatic cases as they have indolent clinical behavior and risk for postoperative morbidity, making an exact diagnosis essential. Morphologically, serous cystadenoma has a prominent subepithelial capillary meshwork causing the aspirate to be paucicellular and nondiagnostic.

An asymptomatic 79-year old woman presented with a 40 mm pancreatic cystic lesion, located in the pancreatic body-tail and consistent with branch-duct intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (BD-IPMN) without "high risk stigmata". During a 4-year follow-up period, imaging showed no mural nodules or main pancreatic duct dilation, and serum CEA and CA19.9 were within normal range.

Ectopic pancreatic or enteric tissue and invaginated splenic capsular epithelium are assumed to be the origin of mucinous cystadenomas of the spleen. We present the first reported case in Ethiopia.

Article Synopsis
- The study explores the suitability of the TriNetX database for researching the real-world management of Von Hippel-Lindau (vHL), a rare hereditary disease characterized by various tumors.
- The researchers analyzed data from 1,232 patients diagnosed with vHL within the TriNetX database to identify the prevalence of several vHL-related conditions, finding that certain conditions like renal cell carcinoma and pheochromocytomas were more common than others.
- Despite the robust patient data available, the findings suggest that vHL and its associated conditions may be underdiagnosed within the TriNetX database, casting doubt on its effectiveness for comprehensive vHL studies compared to existing literature.

Whereas pancreatic masses are often difficult to detect with transabdominal ultrasound, cross-sectional imaging features high sensitivity for the pancreatic tumors. However, increasing availability of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has led to a surge in the detection of benign or precancerous pancreatic lesions. The medical history is characteristic only for two entities.
