suggestion

"Abnormal dilatation of the pancreatic duct indicates obstruction of the normal flow of pancreatic secretions due to a distal (i.e. downstream) tumour or stricture. This can occur with acute pancreatitis, chronic pancreatitis or pancreatic neoplasms. Rarely, pancreatic duct dilatation can occur with tumoural hypersecretion of mucin (e.g. from intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms)."
