Objective To analyze atypical 64-slice spiral CT imaging finings of pancreatic cancer and to improve the ability to identify CT manifestations of pancreatic cancer. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the atypical 64-slice spiral CT imaging findings of 12 eases of pancreatic cancer confirmed by pathology after surgery. Results All the twelve cases were pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.Among them, 7 cases were moderately differentiated ductal adenocarcinoma, 1 case was well-differentiated ductal adenocarcinoma, 1 case was mucinous adenocarcinoma, 3 cases were adenosquamous carcinoma. Among 8 cases with ductal adenocarcinoma, the lesions were located in the pancreatic head and (or) uncinate process in 7 cases, and in the pancreatic neck of 1 case. Tumors were expressed as isodense or low-density or cysticsolid lesions, the masses showed no enhancement in the enhanced scanning phase. Tumors were clearly exogenous or exogenous tendencies in 5 cases. Five cases had no distal pancreatic duct dilation, 2 patients had common bile duct and intrahepatic biliary dilation, and only 1 patient had atrophy of distal pancreas. There was one case of mucinous carcinoma, plain CT scan showed a cystic lesion in head of pancreas about 5cm in diameter, the solid part below the cystic lesion was slightly enhamced in the enhanced scanning phase and the body and tail pancreatic duct was moderately dilated (7 mm). There was no common bile duct and adjacent blood vessels invasion. Among 3 cases of adenosquamous carcinoma, lesions were located in the pancreatic head of 2 cases and in pancreatic body of 1 case. The maximal diameter of mass ranged 3.0 cm ~ 4.5 cm.Cystic necrotic area was observed within the lesions in 3 cases in enhanced pancreatic parenchymal phase of CT scan. Distal pancreatic duct were mildly dilated (4 ~ 5 mm) in 3 cases. There was no common bile duct and intrahepatic bile duct dilation. Conclusions Pancreatic cancer may show atypical CT imaging findings and great cautions are needed for differential diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the CT imaging features of solid pseudopapillary tumor of the pancreas (SPTP) and to improve the preoperative diagnostic accuracy. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the CT manifestations of 21 cases of SPTP confirmed by pathology and surgery. Results In the 21 cases of SPTP, 19 were young and middle-aged female (range: 9~29 years old). The lesions were located in the pancreatic head and neck in 13 cases, and in the pancreatic body and tail in 4 cases each. The maximum diameter of tumor was 3 ~ 15 cm (mean 7.5cm). CT showed a single, round-like, cystic and solid mass in the pancreas. Eighteen cases had a complete capsule, and 3 cases had poorly defined margin with surrounding tissue. 5 cases of tumor were encapsulated or appeared scattered calcification in the center, only 1 case had pancreatic duct dilation (about 5mm in diameter), and no patient had bile duct changes. After enhanced scanning, the tumor capsule and the solid part were mildly to moderately enhanced during arterial phase, and they were significantly enhanced during portal venous phase and equilibrium phase. The cystic part was not enhanced, but the capsule was significantly enhanced. Conclusions CT manifestations of solid pseudopapillary tumor of the pancreas have certain characteristics, and when combined with clinical and imaging manifestations, accurate diagnosis generally can be made.

Objective To establish a big animal model of secondary infection of acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP). Methods Thirty young pigs were allocated to experiment group ( n = 20 ) or control group (n = 10). The ANP model was induced by retrograde injection of a mixture solution of 5% sodium taurocholate and 5% trypsin (0. 5 ml/kg body weight) into the main pancreatic duct and ligation of the proximal end of the main pancreatic duct, and then the second step was injecting 3 ~ 4 ml living Escherichia coli (E coli) suspension (108/ml) to the necrotic area of the pancreas by fine needle aspiration technique under CT guidance in the experiment group, and by injecting 3 ~ 4 ml inactivated E coli in the control group using the same method. Multi-slice spiral CT dynamic enhanced scan was performed in both groups 1 day and 2 or 3 days after ANP modeling and 5 days after bacterial injection to calculate the CTSI score. Serum amylase, blood WBC count and blood bacterial culture was performed in both groups. 5 days later, the animals were scarified to observe the infected or necrosis foci, and perform smear, bacterial culture and pathologic examinations of the tissue around the infected or necrosis foci. Results The ANP secondary infection model was successfully established in 16 of the 20 animals in the study group, with a success rate of the 80.0% (16/20). There were 17 foci where the positive rate of bacterial culture was 100% (17/17 foci), and the success rate of blood bacterial culture was 68.8%(11/16). In the control group, the ANP model was established successfully in 7 of 10 animals (70%), except for one case of contamination, only one foci was identified;the positive rate of bacterial culture and the success rate of b|ood bacterial culture was 14.3% (1/7). Serum amylase and white blood WBC count increased with similar trends, WBC count in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.01). The mean CT severity index(CTSI) was all ≥4 in beth groups, indicating the severity was moderate to severe. Conclusions A stable and reliable model of secondary infection of ANP in big could be established satisfactorily by injecting active E. coli into the pancreatic necrosis tissue under CT guidance, which helps further pathogenic mechanism studies and clinical studies, especially imaging studies.

Objective To investigate the correlativity between secretin-stimulated magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (sMRCP) findings and pathological severity in a swine chronic
pancreatitis (CP) model. Methods Thirty-nine swine were divided randomly into control group (n=12) and experimental group (n= 27). In experimental group, the main pancreatic duct (MPD) was incompletely ligated to establish the model of obstructive CP. In control group, laparotomy was performed but without ligating the MPD. At the 4th, 8th and 12th week after modeling, one third swine of each group were undergone a series of dynamic sMRCP scans before (0 min) and at 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 min after administration of secretin (0.6 μg/kg). And the MPD diameter and duodenum filling (DF) degree were measured. All survivals were sacrificed to pathological examination including HE and Van Gieson staining for histopathological grading. According to pathological severity, swine were divided into normal group, mild CP group and moderate to severe CP group. MRI features and indexes, including baselined diameter (BD), end diameter (ED), maximum diameter (MD), the largest expansion rate (LER), time to peak (Tpeak) and end change rate of pancreatic duct and duodenal filling (DF) scores were measured. The relationships between pathological grading and sMPCP indexes were analysed. The comparison of sMRCP data among the 3 groups were used ariance analysis, χ2 test and U test. Correlations between sMPCP indexes and pathological severity were tested using Spearman rank correlation coefficients. The diagnostic efficiency of sMRCP indexes were evaluated by ROC method. Results (1) In experimental group, 22 CP models were established and 19 CP swine (mild CP, n= 8; moderate and severe CP, n=11) were performed sMRCP successfully. Eleven swine in normal group were obtained satisfactory MRCP images. (2) sMRCP results:BD of 3 groups were (1.56 ± 0.46),(2.95 ± 1.17),(7.41 ± 1.91) mm, respectively. ED were (1.49 ± 0.31),(2.96 ± 1.17) and (7.37±1.90) mm, respectively. MD were (2.39±0.43),(3.91±1.27) and (7.86±1.87)mm, respectively. The median of LER were 42.10%, 34.85% and 6.58%, respectively. The median of DF scores were 3, 3, 2, respectively. The differences of above indexes have statistically significance (P values were all<0.01). There were correlation between sMRCP indexes (BD, ED, MD, LER and DFscores) and pathological severity (r values were 0.89, 0.92, 0.90,-0.85,-0.66, respectively and P values were all<0.01). Tpeak and end change rate of pancreatic duct had no significant differences (P values were>0.05),and no correlation with pathological severity(P values were all>0.05).For differential diagnosis between normal and mild CP, the area under ROC of BD, ED, MD, LER and DFscores were 0.915, 0.977, 0.926, 0.778 and 0.472, respectively and differential diagnosis between mild CP and moderate to severe CP group, the area under ROC were 0.966,0.966,0.960,1.000 and 0.915, respectively. Conclusions sMRCP findings of CP have characteristics and could be used for in vivo evaluation on the CP pathologic grades.
