Can you get a splenic anuerysm on you pancreas??

My wife went for a scan with contrast and the report said a 1cm mass on pancreas versus a splenic artery anuerysm. They reported that an artery branch went through the lesion. Hoping it is indeed a SAA.

Honestly, that is a good sign.  I had a breast cancer scare and was in a surgeon/oncologist within 4 days from the reading of my scans.  They don't wait around if they feel there is true trouble.  You can see if you can get in somewhere else though if waiting is too horrible.  Which waiting always is.

Her oncologist is really a great guy and she’s been with him for four years cured from lymph Oma up to this point so I’m sure he’s making the right move I hope he is

Ugh, why do you have to wait so long.  I'm sure you would like to figure this out sooner rather than later.

Yes, I guess I would hope that too.  I'm so sorry to read these results though. They are saying mass?  What is the next step?
