[Oncocytoma of the pancreas. A case report].

For the first time in the bulgarian literature a case with pancreatic oncocytoma is described, initially diagnosed as carcinoma. The patient survived for 13 years being nowadays in perfect condition.

[Mucinous breast carcinomas with neuroendocrine differentiation].

Mucinous breast carcinomas, denominated also gelatinous, mucoid and colloid (collomas), represent a heterogeneous group of neoplasms. More than half of them exhibit signs of neuroendocrine differentiation. Eighteen mucus producing carcinomas of the breast are subjected to morphological study. On the ground of demonstrating argyrophilia by the methods of Grimelius and Churukian--Shenk, and presence of secreting granules during electron microscopic study, they are assigned under the heading apudomas, i.e. tumors of the diffuse endocrine system, or the so-called APUD-system. The important practical implications of demonstrating neuroendocrine cells with a special reference to the biological patterns of this particular type of tumors are discussed.

[A case of somatostatinoma of the pancreas].

A case of a 36-year-old man with pancreatic somatostatinoma is reported. Such cases are very rare. The following signs were found; quick ESR, increased alpha 2- and beta-globulins, shortened Weltmann's coagulation band, increased serum bilirubin level, especially of the conjugated fraction, enzyme constellation of cholestasis and moderate liver cytolysis. Ultrasound examination of the abdomen, retrograde cholangiopancreatography and percutaneous liver cholangiography were performed in order to prove the diagnosis. They demonstrated an obstruction in Vater's papilla region and a bulky process in the head of the pancreas. The patient was operated. The microscopic, electron microscopic and immunohistochemical examinations proved a somatostatinoma of the pancreas. The positive immunohistochemical tests for somatostatin and carcinoembryonal antigen in the tumor cels are especially indicative.
