A 62-year-old man with elevated CA19-9. Preoperative CT detected a solid lesion in pancreatic tail. Moderately differentiated pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma was confirmed after extended distal pancreatectomy. Contrast-enhanced CT images demonstrate a 4.6-cm hypodense mass in pancreatic tail (arrow) (C) in (A) arterial phase and (B) portal venous phase. Peripancreatic infiltration is appeared(arrowhead). Two enhanced suspicious metastatic lymph nodes (D) are observed (arrow). NLR is 2.96. Tumor recurrence occurrence 5.6 months and died 15.1 months after surgery
