ACG Case Rep J. 2019 Mar 18;6(3):1-5. doi: 10.14309/crj.0000000000000047. eCollection 2019 Mar.

Abstract

We report a previously unreported case of a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor with a central scar mimicking a serous neoplasm. To our knowledge, this atypical imaging morphology of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor has not been described before. Our report adds to the body literature that describes atypical imaging variants of neuroendocrine tumors and highlights that clinicians should be aware of the broad imaging characteristics of neuroendocrine tumors.
