Dreaded II

This 55 year old man with Peutz-Jeghers syndrome underwent an ERCP for nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. The arrow shows the common bile duct. The arrowhead shows the pancreatic duct.

Dreaded II

This is the same diagnosis as the last case: pancreatic adenocarcinoma. The ERCP shows the “double duct sign;” the CBD is dilated proximal to a stricture and the pancreatic duct is dilated due to obstruction from a tumor.
