ABSTRACT
Objective To study the multi-detector spiral CT (MDCT) features of pancreatic tuberculosis to improve the awareness and correct diagnosis. Methods Imaging features of MDCT were retrospectively reviewed on 9 cases with pancreatic tuberculosis that were diagnosed from 2003 to 2009, among them two patients underwent MDCT angiography, the features were compared with those of operative and pathological findings. Results One case of pancreatic cancer, 2 cases of cystadenocarcinoma and 1 case of pseudocyst, 2 cases of pancreatic cancer with retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis, 2 cases of lymphoma were diagnosed by MDCT, and all the lesions were diagnosed as pancreatic tuberculosis pathologically, and the misdiagnosis rate was 100%. Pancreatic tuberculosis often presented as pancreatic head mass, sometimes pancreatic body and tail were involved. MDCT showed isopycnic or low density solid-cyst mass, occasionally calcification was present, with slightly or moderate ring-like enhancement after contrast injection. There was no enlargement of the pancreatic duct. The retroperitoneal and adjacent lymph nodes were always enlarged with ring-like enhancement. Sometimes there was evidence of tuberculosis of other abdominal organs. Conclusions Ring-like enhanced lesions with ring-like enhanced lymph nodes without enlargement of pancreatic duct are characteristic MDCT features of pancreatic tuberculosis.
