A large mass with prominent cystic components enhancing solid parts and calcified foci are seen in the pancreatic head with the widening of the duodenal C loop. The faint fluid-fluid level is visible on some cystic components. Hypervascularity, cystic components, and calcified foci are in favor of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.
