Fig. 8B —38-year-old woman with history of chronic pancreatitis who had known
pancreatic pseudocyst. Contrast-enhanced CT showed enlarging splenic artery
pseudoaneurysm. Axial (A) and coronal volume rendering (B) from
IV and oral contrast-enhanced venous phase MDCT reveal 4.6 x 3.3 cm
heterogeneous mass (white arrows) in region of pancreatic tail.
Central enhancing component is compatible with pseudoaneurysm surrounded by
acute hemorrhage. In addition, elongated, enhancing region was identified
extending from pseudoaneurysm into spleen (black arrows, B),
which was new from previous examination and interpreted as second
pseudoaneurysm. Patient underwent interventional coil embolization of
pseudoaneurysm and the spleen.
