Meso-pancreatectomy for pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor.

Abstract
We report a case of a meso-pancreatectomy performed on a pancreatic glucagonoma in a 58 years-old woman. MP is a conservative surgical treatment consisting in a resection of the body of the pancreas with the aim of reducing postoperative hormone insufficiency. This approach is curative in benign or low-malignant neoplasm of the central part of the pancreas.
