MIXED NEUROENDOCRINE TUMOR OF HEAD OF PANCREAS
This report describes a rare case of a mixed neuroendocrine tumor of the head of the pancreas. The diagnosis was based on imaging studies with anatomopathological confirmation after a wide resection surgical procedure. This type of tumor must be included in the differential diagnoses in jaundiced and young patients, especially when other more common diseases have been ruled out.

Abstract:
This report describes a rare case of a mixed neuroendocrine tumor of the head of the pancreas. The diagnosis was based on imaging studies with anatomopathological confirmation after a wide resection surgical procedure. This type of tumor must be included in the differential diagnoses in jaundiced and young patients, especially when other more common diseases have been ruled out.
