Objective: The purpose of our study was to retrospectively investigate the MRI findings (diameter, location, contour and margin, signal intensity characteristics, and enhancement patterns) in a series of eight patients with pathologically proven colloid carcinoma of the pancreas.
Conclusion: Colloid carcinomas of the pancreas appear as masses with lobulating contours, indiscrete margins, and hyperintensity on T2-weighted images (n = 8). In addition, all patients who underwent dynamic studies (n = 4) showed peripheral and internal sponge-like or mesh-like progressive delayed contrast enhancement.

: Colon cancer is one of the main causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Among its histopathological subtypes, mucinous adenocarcinoma (MAC) is characterized by a more aggressive behavior than non-mucinous adenocarcinoma (non-MAC). This study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes and postoperative recovery between MAC and non-MAC cases in order to better understand the treatment implications and optimize therapeutic strategies.
