Heterotopic pancreas is the presence of pancreatic tissue outside the normal location lacking ductal or vascular continuity with the main gland. There are case series describing the computed tomographic appearance of heterotopic pancreas in the stomach. Pancreatic heterotopia in the jejunum is rare. To the best of our knowledge, there is only one report on the computed tomographic appearance of heterotopic pancreas in the jejunum. We present the computed tomographic appearance of another such case.

在空腸位置的異位胰腺

DD Rasalkar、BK Paunipagar、陳碧雲

胰腺異位是指胰腺組織出現在正常位置以外的部位,並且與主腺沒有腺管或血管相聯。電腦斷層成像顯示在胃部出現異位胰腺已有病例報導,然而在空腸出現異位胰腺卻很罕見。據作者所知,迄今只有一宗電腦斷層成像顯示在空腸出現異位胰腺的病例報告。本文報告另一宗空腸中段位置異位胰腺的病例。
