Re: Acute AP mimcking RIF mass-benign or malignant?Mangement

Are there any facilities available for Frozen section histopathology, which can be done while the patient on operating table? If the result comes to be positive for malignant cells, then relatives should be discussed there and then about the consent.

What was your differential in this case? Which neoplastic disorder you considered at this age group?
