Abstract:
Hemangiopericytoma of the pancreas has rarely been described, and its radiological findings have never been described in the radiological literature. We report a case of a metastatic hemangiopericytoma involving the pancreas in a 48-year-old woman. CT, MR, and angiography showed three, well-demarcated, heterogeneously enhancing masses with necrosis and hemorrhage in the pancreas.
