Figure 1 Computed tomography images.
A: Stent in the pancreatic duct (orange arrowhead) and large stone in the pancreas head (dotted line circle); B: Expanded main pancreatic duct (orange arrowhead) and thinning of pancreatic parenchyma (dotted line circle); C: Multiple pancreatic cysts of the hilum of the spleen and the posterior lateral segment of the liver; D: White arrowhead showing a fistula connected to the stomach from the infected pancreatic cysts.
Figure 2 Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography images.
A: Cysts showing low intensity in T1-weighted images (dotted line circles); B: Cysts showing high signal in diffusion weighted images (dotted line circles).
