How does a splenic mass affect the pancreas?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A big spleen mass...: A big spleen mass (splenic tumor) could press on the tail end of the pancreas. They are next to one another. If a tumor squishes into the pancreas, it might cause pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas) and its pain symptoms.
