Figure 2

A 67-year-old male patient with a giant serous cystadenoma of the pancreas. (a) A low-density, lobulated tumor with dotted calcification and isodense central scar was noted on CT plain scanning. (b) The tumor showed early enhancement on arterial phase image. (c) The honeycomb-like tumor displayed decreased enhancement on portal phase image with a hypodense central scar. (d) CTA showed the feeding splenic artery and draining veins (arrow) on the tumor surface. (e) Portal phase vascular reconstruction showed left gastric vein varices (short arrow) and splenic vein stenosis (long arrow).
