    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    A rare non-functional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor presented atypically on imaging. The tumor infiltrated the pancreas diffusely, causing enlargement, calcifications, and cysts without a distinct mass.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Oncology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) are rare neoplasms.
    • Non-functional PNETs lack specific clinical or biochemical markers.
    • Atypical presentations can challenge diagnosis.

    Observation:

    • This case describes an unusual radiographic appearance of a non-functional PNET.
    • Imaging findings included diffuse pancreatic enlargement, extensive calcifications, and numerous small cysts.
    • No focal mass was identified on ultrasound (US), computed tomography (CT), or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

    Findings:

    • Radiographic-pathologic correlation confirmed diffuse neoplastic infiltration of the pancreas.
    • Autopsy specimens and immunohistochemical staining supported the diagnosis.
    • The observed radiographic features were secondary to the diffuse tumor spread.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of considering rare PNET presentations in differential diagnosis.
    • Emphasizes the need for thorough radiographic-pathologic correlation in complex cases.
    • May inform diagnostic strategies for non-functional pancreatic tumors with atypical imaging.
