RADIOLOGY: PANCREAS: Case# 33543: CYSTADENOCARCINOMA AND SARCOIDOSIS. 49 year old black female. 1. 9 x 8.5 cm predominantly cystic mass is seen in the region of the pancreatic tail (with solid components) consistent with mucinous cystic neoplasm (either benign or malignant). 2. Multiple low attenuation lesions seen throughout the spleen which may represent sarcoidosis, however metastatic disease cannot be excluded. 3. Three liver cysts, the largest of which measures 2.0 x 2.0 cm (see above). 4. No evidence for intra-abdominal lymphadenopathy. 5. The chest CT demonstrates hilar and mediastinal lymphadenopathy, which along with the appearance of the spleen may represent metastatic disease, however sarcoidosis could have a similar appearance.
