Core Tip |
Mahvash disease is a potentially lethal, autosomal recessive hereditary disease of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors and inborn error of metabolism. The diagnosis of Mahvash disease has been delayed in the past largely due to radiologists’ unawareness of or unfamiliarity with the unique imaging features of Mahvash disease. On the other hand, Mahvash disease can be readily diagnosed once its imaging features are appreciated. To prevent missing the diagnosis of this interesting disease, radiologists should consider Mahvash disease in their differential diagnoses of diffusely enlarged pancreas. |
