Lesions of the pancreas are fairly common leading to the occurrence of simple cysts, serous cystadenoma or solid tumors. We present a rare case of a 35 year old woman previously diagnosed with VHL disease whose pancreas on endoscopic ultrasound was found to be replaced by cysts of varying sizes with normal pancreatic tissues and duct not being identified.

Other carcinoid tumor origins include the lungs, thymus, ovaries and kidneys. Primary mesenteric carcinoid tumors are extremely rare {Karahan 2006}. Park et al. reported a case of a solitary 8 cm mesenteric carcinoid tumor in a 73 year-old woman after a meticulous search for tumors at other sites {Park 2013}. Yamanuha reported mesenteric tumor in a 52 year old with a partially calcified lobulated mass in the mesentery with smaller nodes in adjacent mesentery also without tumor activity elsewhere after imaging, colonoscopy and direct visualization at surgery {Yamanuha 2009}.
Screening method and public awareness are lacking. Due to this, disease is diagnosed at an advanced stage accompanied by metastasis in patients, and it leads to a poor prognosis. 50% is five-year survival rate of this disease (3,16). Squamous cell carcinoma being the most prevalent type in the oral cancer which is the common cancer throughout the world. Approximately there are 260000 new cases of oral squamous cell carcinoma and 124000 deaths worldwide annually
