Figure 1. Diffuse cystic dilation at the pancreatic body and tail with severe parenchymal heterogeneity shown in (A) T2W2 abdominal MRI (arrows), and (B) vibe post contrast abdominal MRI (arrows). (C) T2-weighed abdominal MRI: cystic lesion with compact elements and high signal intensity in contact with the tail of the pancreas and the hilum of the spleen (arrows). (D) MRCP: mild dilation of the common hepatic duct (red arrow) with smooth stenosis of the common bile duct (yellow arrow). Absence of visualization of the major or accessory pancreatic duct. MRI – magnetic resonance imagining; MRCP – magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography.
