BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Umbilical metastases known as Sister Mary Joseph's nodules (SMJNs) occur rarely. They are an uncommon clinical or radiographic finding, and are rare as the first sign of a malignant disease. Pancreatic cancer presenting as an SMJN is a rare phenomenon, and is the source of an SMJN in 9% of cases.
We experienced four cases of SMJN derived from pancreatic cancer. All cases originated in the tail and/or body of the pancreas.
Herein, we introduce a case with pathognomonic imaging findings. We also present the results of our review of recently published papers about SMJN, done by conducting a PubMed search.
背景/目的：以圣母玛利亚·约瑟夫结节（SMJN）形式出现的脐转移瘤非常罕见。它们是一种不常见的临床或影像学表现，并且作为恶性疾病的首发症状也很少见。以 SMJN 形式出现的胰腺癌是一种罕见现象，在 9%的病例中是 SMJN 的来源。
我们遇到了 4 例源自胰腺癌的 SMJN。所有病例均起源于胰腺尾部和/或体部。
在此，我们介绍了一例具有特征性影像学表现的病例。我们还通过进行 PubMed 搜索，对最近发表的关于 SMJN 的论文进行了回顾，并介绍了结果。
