Figure 1 Infiltrating carcinoma found in a case of pancreatic cyst. (A) MRCP findings at the diagnosis of pancreatic cyst. Cystic lesion, diameter of 8 mm, was seen in the body of the pancreas. (B) MRCP findings when cancer was found. Invasive carcinoma developed distal to the cystic lesion after 60 months. There were no malignant cells between these lesions. (C) CT findings when cancer was found. Space-occupying lesion as a feature of conventional ductal carcinoma was seen.
