Fig. 9 —50-year-old woman with new diagnosis of pancreatic
adenocarcinoma. CT scan shows paraaortic retroperitoneal soft-tissue mass but
no elevation of aorta from spine, which suggests benign cause. However, this
mass has lobulated anterior margin, which raises concern for metastatic
disease. Subsequent biopsy confirmed malignant nature of this paraaortic soft
tissue.
