Hello Doctor, I have a pancreatic tumour, diagnosed as low grade malignant tumour of the size of 1.2cm in the pancreas. Three months ago it was 1.0 cm in size. It is not a cyst. CT contrast shows a solid mass. The PET scan has been advised when my pancreas is healed, as it is inflamed now. I have a question to the surgery of such a tumour, if necessary. Can the tumour alone be removed or the whole pancreas has to be removed? In general I would like your opinion about such a procedure. Regards.
