Abstract
|
|
|
|
Heterotopic pancreas can be defined as the occurrence of pancreatic tissue at aberrant anatomic sites that lack vascular, neural and anatomic community with the pancreas. A minority of heterotopic pancreas elicit clinical signs or symptoms that can vary according to its location and size, and the involvement of the overlying mucosa. We report here on a case of heterotopic pancreas that was removed by pancreatoduodenectomy under the erroneous diagnosis of distal common bile duct cancer.
