Endosonography in the diagnosis and management of pancreatic cysts

Figure 2 Endoscopic ultrasound imaging. A: A lobular microcystic lesion consistent with serous cystadenoma; B: A smooth, unilocular, thin walled cyst consistent with mucinous cystic neoplasm; C: A cyst with peripheral calcification (arrow) and debris layering at the bottom of the cyst consistent with pseudocyst; D: A thick walled cyst filled with debris representing walled-off pancreatic necrosis; E: A cyst communicating with a nondilated main pancreatic duct (arrow) representing branch duct intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm; F: A multiseptated lobular cyst appearing like a “cluster of grapes” consistent with branch duct intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm; G: A well-defined heterogeneous mass-like lesion with hyperechoic foci and small anechoic focus diagnosed as solid pseudopapillary neoplasm on cytology; H: A unilocular cyst with mucus (arrow) appearing hypoechoic relative to the adjacent pancreatic parenchyma with a smooth hyperechoic rim; I: Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration of a nodule which appears isoechoic with pancreatic parenchyma without a hyperechoic rim within a dilated main pancreatic duct. Cytology showed adenocarcinoma.
