Purpose . To study the possibilities of CT perfusion (CTP) in detecting periampullary tumors depending on anatomical localization, to compare diagnostic efficiency with standard protocol. Materials and methods scan abdominal organs according protocol CTP were performed 229 patients tumors. Results In adenocarcinoma pancreas, compared major duodenal papilla, BF, BV, MSI (p<0,005) statisticall...

Abstract CT and MRI are the crucial tools in imaging assessment of pancreatic diseases. They allow a comprehensive insight into normal pathological structural to some degree even functional conditions pancreas its surrounding. In consequence, most diseases can be identified classified by MRI. The common findings—the adenocarcinoma acute chronic inflammation pancreas—are usually easily contribut...

Pancreatic cancer carries a poor prognosis, especially invasive ductal carcinoma of the pancreas. We present here the case of a 76-year-old man who developed synchronous double cancers of the stomach and pancreas. He was referred to our hospital in December, 1997, with a provisional diagnosis of carcinoma of the stomach. Laboratory data on admission showed normal levels except for the serum car...

Background: Sister Mary Joseph Nodule (SMJN) is a rare metastatic umbilical nodule with primary tumor genital or gastrointestinal sites. Pancreas location for metastases. Pancreatic adenocarcinoma associated SMJN usually arise from the body and tail of pancreas. We report case SMJ nodule’s as cutaneous manifestation pancreatic head cancer. Case Report: A 59-year-old man, presented epigastric, b...

We retrospectively investigated the incidence of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma among patients with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms of the pancreas. Based on imaging in 195 such patients, we chose surgery as initial treatment for 54, and periodic evaluation over 6 to 192 months (mean, 52) for 141. In 6 of the 141 patients observed for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (4.2%), p...

PURPOSE Mucins are important biomolecules that frequently display an altered expression under pathological conditions. In a search for a unique and reliable marker(s) specific for pancreatic adenocarcinoma, we investigated the expression of different MUC genes in pancreatic tumors and tumor cell lines, in chronic pancreatitis, and in the normal pancreas. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Total RNA from 16 ...

A tumor consisting of an adenocarcinoma component and a neuroendocrine carcinoma component, with each component accounting for at least 30% of the tumor, is defined as a mixed adenoneuroendocrine carcinoma (MANEC). We report a case of MANEC of the pancreas. A 63-year-old man presented with hyperglycemia and was referred to our hospital for further examination. Abdominal contrast-enhanced comput...

INTRODUCTION Adenocarcinoma of the ovary is an aggressive neoplasm which often metastasizes to the lung or liver. Metastases rarely occur to the pancreas, but a tissue diagnosis is required to confirm this event. Although most tumors of the pancreas are primary pancreatic neoplasms, metastatic lesions have been reported most commonly as arising from renal cell carcinoma. CASE PRESENTATION We ...

Mucinous noncystic (colloid) carcinoma (MNCC) of the pancreas is considered an uncommon variant of ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas with specific histopathological and molecular features. We report the CT findings of large area of hypoattenuation and intratumoral calcification in a pathologically proven case of mucinous non-cystic carcinoma of the pancreas. MNCC of the pancreas is a distin...
