BACKGROUND: To predict poor overall survival (OS) in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAC) who underwent FOLFIRINOX (5-fluorouracil/leucovorin/irinotecan/oxaliplatin) using clinical and computed tomography (CT) findings. METHODS: A total of 189 patients with PAC who received FOLFIRINOX were retrospectively included. Two reviewers assessed CT findings and resectability based on National Comprehensive Cancer Network guidelines. They determined tumor size changes according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST 1...

METHODS: This retrospective single-institution study included patients who received a diagnosis of IgG4-RD between January 2010 and December 2020. Two abdominal radiologists independently reviewed baseline imaging studies and scored radiology findings according to the 2019 ACR-EULAR classification criteria...

PURPOSE: Duodenal/pancreatic injuries occur in less than 10% of intra-abdominal injuries in pediatric blunt trauma. Isolated duodenal/pancreatic injuries occur in two-thirds of cases, while combined injuries occur in the remaining. This study aimed to investigate pediatric patients with pancreatic and duodenal trauma. METHODS: Data from 31 patients admitted to Atatürk University, Medical Faculty, Department of Pediatric Surgery for pancreatic/duodenal trauma between 2010 and 2019 were retrospectively analyzed...

PURPOSE: To calculate the prevalence of pancreatic cysts on photon counting CT (PCCT) and compare with that of 128-slice conventional energy-integrating detector CT (EIDCT). METHOD: A retrospective single institution database search identified all contrast-enhanced abdominal CT examinations performed at an outpatient facility that has both a PCCT and EIDCT between 4/11/2022 and 7/26/2022. The presence and size of pancreatic cysts were recorded. In patients with PCCT reported pancreatic cysts, prior CT imaging (EIDCT) was reviewed for reported pancreatic cysts...

Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is an autoimmune subtype of chronic pancreatitis resulting from the aberrant immune response against the pancreas, leading to inflammation and fibrosis. Although AIP is rare, its incidence is increasing and is often misdiagnosed as other pancreatic diseases. AIP is commonly classified into two types. Type 1 AIP (AIP-1) is typically associated with elevated serum immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4) levels and systemic manifestations, while type 2 AIP is typically a more localized form of the disease, and may coexist with other autoimmune disorders, especially inflammatory bowel diseases...

Colonoscopy is an integral part of the lower bowel care and is generally considered a potentially safe diagnostic and therapeutic procedure performed as a daycare outpatient procedure. Colonoscopy is associated with different complications that are not limited to adverse events related to the bowel preparation solutions used, the sedatives used, but to the procedure related as well including bleeding and perforation. Injuries to the extra-luminal abdominal organs during colonoscopy are uncommon, however, serious complications related to the procedure have been reported infrequently in the literature...

Solid pseudopapillary tumor (SPT) of the pancreas is a neoplasm with low malignant potential. It is often challenging to diagnose SPT due to its nonspecific clinical and radiological features, and [18 F]FDOPA is effective in diagnosing SPT, particularly in differentiating SPT from benign conditions such as splenosis. A 55-year-old woman underwent distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy for histologically confirmed SPT. She was also initially diagnosed with splenosis. During follow-up, sizes of multiple nodular lesions were increased, raising the possibility of peritoneal seeding of SPT...

Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (PNETs) are a rare subset of pancreatic tumours that have historically comprised up to 3% of all clinically detected pancreatic tumours. In recent decades, however, advancements in imaging have led to an increased incidental detection rate of PNETs and imaging has played an increasingly central role in the initial diagnostics and surgical planning of these tumours. Cinematic rendering (CR) is a 3D post-processing technique that generates highly photorealistic images through more realistically modelling the path of photons through the imaged volume...

PURPOSE: Pancreatic duct dilation is associated with an increased risk of pancreatic cancer, the most lethal malignancy with the lowest 5-year relative survival rate. Automatic segmentation of the dilated pancreatic duct from contrast-enhanced CT scans would facilitate early diagnosis. However, pancreatic duct segmentation poses challenges due to its small anatomical structure and poor contrast in abdominal CT. In this work, we investigate an anatomical attention strategy to address this issue...

OBJECTIVES: The aim of the IRECAP study was to evaluate the rate of locally advanced pancreas cancer patients (LAPC) who could undergo R0 or R1 surgery after irreversible electroporation (IRE). MATERIALS AND METHODS: IRECAP study is a phase II, single-center, open-label, prospective, non-randomized trial registered at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT03105921). Patients with LAPC were first treated by 3-month neo-adjuvant chemotherapy in order to avoid inclusion of either patients with LAPC having become resectable after chemotherapy or patients with rapid disease progression...

Immunoglobulin 4 (IgG4)-related disease is a chronic immune-mediated fibroinflammatory disorder. Involvement of the vascular system, including large- and medium-sized vessels, is increasingly recognized. The varied appearances of vascular involvement reflect the sequela of chronic inflammation and fibrosis and can include aortitis and periaortitis with resultant complications such as aneurysm formation and dissection. A diagnosis of IgG4-related large vessel involvement should be considered when there is known or suspected IgG4-related disease elsewhere...

The radiologic finding of focal stenosis of the main pancreatic duct is highly suggestive of pancreatic cancer. Even in the absence of a mass lesion, focal duct stenosis can lead to surgical resection of the affected portion of the pancreas. We present four patients with distinctive pathology associated with non-neoplastic focal stenosis of the main pancreatic duct. The pathology included stenosis of the pancreatic duct accompanied by wavy, acellular, serpentine-like fibrosis, chronic inflammation with foreign body-type giant cell reaction, and calcifications...

OBJECTIVE: To review the congenital anomalies of the pancreas with their main clinical manifestations and key imaging findings on CT and MRI.

OBJECTIVES: Since neither abdominal pain nor pancreatic enzyme elevation is specific for acute pancreatitis (AP), the diagnosis of AP in patients with pancreaticobiliary maljunction (PBM) may be challenging when the pancreas appears normal or nonobvious on computed tomography (CT). This study aimed to develop a quantitative radiomics-based nomogram of pancreatic CT for identifying AP in children with PBM who have nonobvious findings on CT. METHODS: PBM patients with a diagnosis of AP evaluated at the Children's Hospital of Soochow University from June 2015 to October 2022 were retrospectively reviewed...

Pancreas divisum (PD) represents a prevalent congenital pancreatic variant, typically arising from the failure of fusion between the ventral and dorsal pancreatic ducts. This condition is frequently associated with recurrent pancreatitis. We herein present a case involving an incomplete PD diagnosis following the identification of a refractory postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) after laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (DP) for pancreatic cancer. A 74-year-old female patient, who had undergone laparoscopic DP for pancreatic cancer, developed a POPF accompanied by intraabdominal bleeding, necessitating urgent intervention radiology to avert life-threatening complications...
