Cystic ductal adenocarcinoma of pancreas complicated with neuroendocrine tumor: A case report and review of literature

Figure 1 Preoperative ultrasound and computed tomography imaging results. A: Ultrasound imaging showed that the cystic lesion of the body and tail of the pancreas (within the ellipse) was irregular and heterogeneous hypoechoic (shown by the arrow); B: On the non-enhanced axial image, the low-density cystic mass (indicated by the arrow) in the tail of the pancreas protruding outside the outline; C: On the axial image in the arterial phase of contrast enhanced scan, the cystic mass (indicated by the arrow) does not communicate with the main pancreatic duct and the cyst wall is not exactly enhanced; D: On the axial image of the portal vein phase of contrast enhanced scan, the cystic mass (arrow) compresses the posterior wall of the gastric body and is not clearly separated from the blood vessels of the spleen; E: On the sagittal images of the arterial phase of contrast enhanced scan, the cystic mass surrounds the splenic vessels and narrows its lumen (as indicated by the arrow); F: The shape of the cystic mass on the coronal image of the arterial phase is irregular (indicated by the arrow).
