A screening non-contrast abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a suspicious 18-mm mass adjacent to the pancreatic head. The mass was hyperdense with well-defined borders, prompting further evaluation (asterisks).

An endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) image utilizing a convex-type ultrasound for this patient. The EUS revealed a well-circumscribed, 18-mm anechoic lesion within the pancreatic head. a The lesion demonstrated continuity with tubular structures on both the cranial and caudal sides, suggestive of a vascular origin. b,c Color Doppler and power Doppler imaging confirmed blood flow within the lesion, and pulse Doppler analysis identified an arterial waveform, leading to a diagnosis of a gastroduodenal artery aneurysm.
