ABSTRACT
Serous cystadenomas of the pancreas are generally considered to be microcystic adenomas. Typical serous cystadenomas of the pancreas are encapsulated tumors composed of tiny cysts less than 2 cm in size showing sponge-like appearance with a central stellate scar or calcification on the cross-section. It has been recently reported, however, that serous cystadenomas may have macrocystic variants (major cysts more than 2 cm in size) that are radiologically indistinguishable from mucinous cystadenomas of the pancreas. We report the CT and MR imaging findings in a patient with mixed microcystic and macrocystic serous cystadenoma of the pancreas, indicating the histopathologic correlation. The mass was composed of two different types of cyst multiple, small (2 cm) with peripheral calcification.
