Fig. 2C. —70-year-old man with history of pancreatic carcinoma. Hepatic pseudolesion was visualized on CT and characterized as benign on MR imaging by initial and expert intepreters. Lesion was not visible on unenhanced T1- and T2-weighted MR images (not shown). Patient underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy and intraoperative sonography, and surgical palpation of liver revealed no lesion in area of abnormality seen on CT. Postoperative CT of liver and clinical follow-up did not reveal hepatic metastasis during following 12 months. Patient developed metastatic disease 18 months after surgery and eventually died of pancreatic cancer. In 2-min delayed phase T1-weighted spoiled gradient-echo MR image, area corresponding to that shown in A is slightly accentuated by adjacent vessels (arrowhead) but without evidence of a mass.
