Pancreatic pseudocyst simulating dilated biliary duct system on computed tomography.
A case of pseudocyst simulating the biliary ductal system is reported. Several CT findings indicate that the biliary system was not involved: (a) no dilatation of the more proximal intrahepatic biliary radicles; (b) the gallbladder was not distended; (c) lucency extending to the left at the level of the pancreas; (d) a position more medial and anterior than anatomic for the distal common bile duct.
