Type 1 autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP1) is an IgG4-related systemic disease that mimics tumors. We report a rare case of AIP1 accompanied by mucinous cystic neoplasm (MCN). A pancreatic lesion was incidentally detected in a woman in her 60s. After 6 years of follow-up, the lesion abruptly increased in size. Computed tomography showed a 3.5 cm unilocular cyst in the tail of the pancreas and distal pancreatectomy was performed. On microscopic examination, the cyst was lined by mucinous and non-mucinous epithelial cells with mild cytologic atypia. The surrounding stroma comprised ovarian-type spindle cells with progesterone receptor positivity. The pericystic pancreas exhibited multifocal lymphoid follicles, lymphoplasmacytic infiltrations, obliterative phlebitis, and storiform fibrosis. IgG4-positive plasma cell infiltration (215 cells high-power field) and the IgG4/IgG ratio (57%) were increased. Cases of MCN coexisting with AIP1 are extremely rare; only two such cases have been reported in the English-language literature. This third case featured low-grade MCN with AIP1.

Abstract PDF

We describe a rare case of sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy (Rosai-Dorfman disease) associated with a six-year history of autoimmune pancreatitis, which was controlled by steroid treatment. The patient presented with multiple, cervical and thoracic lymphadenopathy and abnormal, nodular opacities in the lung. Histologically, Rosai-Dorfman disease with numerous IgG4-positive cells was identified in a subcutaneous lymph node in the patient's left forearm. The patient recovered uneventfully with steroid treatment.
