Abstract

Mucinous carcinoma of the pancreas has been rarely documented. Consequently, studies on imaging criteria for distinguishing mucinous carcinoma from other pancreatic tumors remain insufficient. Herein, we report a resected case of mucinous carcinoma of the pancreas, including correlation analysis between imaging and pathology. Imaging studies revealed a honeycomb-like multinodular cystic mass with poor contrast enhancement and an irregular contour. In conclusion, mucinous carcinoma of the pancreas can present as a multinodular cystic mass with a honeycomb-like structure. A key feature distinguishing it from serous cystadenoma is poor contrast enhancement, which might be accompanied by an irregular contour.

胰腺蜂窝状粘液癌，类似浆液性囊腺瘤。

胰脏粘液癌很少有文献记载。因此，鉴别粘液癌与其他胰腺肿瘤的影像学标准研究仍然不足。在此，我们报告一例胰腺粘液癌的切除病例，包括影像学和病理的相关性分析。影像学显示蜂窝状多结节性囊性肿块，对比度增强差，轮廓不规则。总之，胰腺粘液癌可表现为蜂窝状结构的多结节性囊性肿块。区别于浆液性囊腺瘤的一个关键特征是对比度增强差，可能伴有不规则轮廓。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Clinical Ultrasound (JCU) is an international journal dedicated to the worldwide dissemination of scientific information on diagnostic and therapeutic applications of medical sonography. The scope of the journal includes--but is not limited to--the following areas: sonography of the gastrointestinal tract, genitourinary tract, vascular system, nervous system, head and neck, chest, breast, musculoskeletal system, and other superficial structures; Doppler applications; obstetric and pediatric applications; and interventional sonography. Studies comparing sonography with other imaging modalities are encouraged, as are studies evaluating the economic impact of sonography. Also within the journal''s scope are innovations and improvements in instrumentation and examination techniques and the use of contrast agents. JCU publishes original research articles, case reports, pictorial essays, technical notes, and letters to the editor. The journal is also dedicated to being an educational resource for its readers, through the publication of review articles and various scientific contributions from members of the editorial board and other world-renowned experts in sonography.
