Fig. 2From: Retroperitoneal-first dissection approach at the dorsal space for a huge serous cystic neoplasm of the pancreatic tail: a case reportA A typical low-density multi-cystic lesion of SCN at the pancreatic tail was revealed by contrast-enhanced CT at porto-venous phase. B Tumor dorsally compressed the splenic vein, left renal vessels, and left kidney. The white line indicated the estimated dissected space at the dorsal dissection. C Coronary image showed the tumor compression of liver, spleen, abdominal aorta, and left iliac artery. D Tumor compressed the superior mesenteric vessels, and intestines. E Tumor expanded to both the front of the abdomen and the retroperitoneal space. F Tumor spread beyond the level of the abdominal aorta and adjacent vertebraBack to article page
