RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To identify useful features to predict hidden pancreatic malignancies in patients with main pancreatic duct (MPD) abrupt cutoff and dilatation, but without visible focal pancreatic lesions on CT. METHODS: This retrospective study included 92 patients (mean age, 63.4 ± 10.6 years, 63 men and 29 women) with MPD abrupt cutoff and dilatation, but without visible focal pancreatic lesion on contrast-enhanced CT between 2009 and 2021. Two radiologists independently evaluated the CT imaging features. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to identify clinical and CT imaging features for hidden pancreatic malignancies. A nomogram was developed based on these results and assessed its performance. RESULTS: Thirty-eight (41.3%) and 54 (58.7%) were classified into the malignant and benign groups, respectively. In the multivariable analysis, CA19-9 elevation (odds ratio [OR] 7.5, p = 0.003), duct cutoff site at the head/neck (OR 7.6, p = 0.006), parenchymal contour abnormality at the duct cutoff site (OR 13.7, p < 0.001), and presence of acute pancreatitis (OR 11.5, p = 0.005) were independent predictors of pancreatic malignancy. A combination of any two significant features showed an accuracy of 77.2%, and a combination of any three features exhibited a specificity of 100%. The CT-based nomogram showed an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.84 (95% confidence interval, 0.77-0.90). CONCLUSIONS: The three CT imaging features and CA19-9 elevation translated into a nomogram permit a reliable estimation of hidden pancreatic malignancies in patients with MPD abrupt cutoff without visible focal pancreatic lesion. It may facilitate determining whether to proceed to further diagnostic tests. KEY POINTS: • Isoattenuating pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma can manifest only as an isolated main pancreatic duct (MPD) dilatation with abrupt cutoff, making it difficult to distinguish from benign strictures. • Along with the serum CA 19-9 elevation, MPD cutoff site at the pancreas head or neck, parenchymal contour abnormality at the duct cutoff site, and associated acute pancreatitis indicated a higher probability of the malignant MPD strictures. • The CT-based nomogram provided excellent diagnostic performance (AUC of 0.84) for hidden pancreatic malignancies in patients with MPD abrupt cutoff and dilatation.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To identify independent imaging and histopathologic factors that affect washout appearance of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in CT images. METHODS: This retrospective study included 264 patients who had undergone surgical resection for treatment-naïve single HCC between January 2014 and December 2015 and had available preoperative multiphasic CT images. Two reviewers evaluated the CT imaging features of HCC using LI-RADS v2018. The "washout" was visually assessed in portal venous or equilibrium phases. Depending on the presence of washout appearance of HCC, all patients were divided into "washout" (n = 228) and "no washout" (n = 36) groups. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with the absence of washout appearance of HCC. RESULTS: A total of 264 HCCs (median size, 2.6 cm) were analyzed. Histologically proven hepatic steatosis (macrovesicular steatosis ≥ 5%) (odds ratio [OR], 2.65; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.05-6.74; p = 0.040), tumor capsule on histopathology (OR, 0.17; 95% CI, 0.06-0.50; p = 0.001), and mosaic appearance on CT image (OR, 0.34; 95% CI, 0.14-0.85; p = 0.021) were independent factors associated with the absence of washout appearance of HCC. In 189 patients with available unenhanced CT images, CT-diagnosed hepatic steatosis was also an independent factor for the absence of washout appearance of HCC (OR, 9.26; 95% CI, 3.06-28.02; p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Washout appearance of HCC in CT images could be obscured in both histologically proven hepatic steatosis and CT-diagnosed hepatic steatosis, and could be enhanced with tumor capsule on histopathology and mosaic appearance on CT image. KEY POINTS: • Hepatic steatosis is an independent factor related to the absence of washout appearance of hepatocellular carcinoma in CT images, in both histologically proven hepatic steatosis and CT-diagnosed hepatic steatosis. • Both histologically proven hepatic steatosis and CT-diagnosed hepatic steatosis have higher odds of absence of washout appearance of hepatocellular carcinoma compared to non-steatotic liver. • Tumor capsule on histopathology and mosaic appearance on CT image are independent factors that enhance the probability that washout appearance of hepatocellular carcinoma is visible.
