Patency of the accessory pancreatic duct in chronic pancreatitis.
I read the paper by Hernández Garces et al. [1] with interest and I have some questions. I have prospectively examined patency of the accessory pancreatic duct (APD) by dyeinjection endoscopic retrograde pancreatography in 410 cases (291 controls, 46 acute pancreatitis, 32 chronic pancreatitis, 27 pancreaticobiliary maljunction, and 14 intraductal papillary mucinous tumor of the pancreas) [2, 3...
متن کاملAccessory Pancreatic Duct-Portal Vein Fistula: A Rare Complication of Chronic Pancreatitis during Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography
Pancreatitis, hemorrhage and perforation are the most frequent complications associated with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). We report a rare case of accessory pancreatic duct-portal vein fistula, which occurred during ERCP in a patient with chronic pancreatitis. To our knowledge, this is the first report of accessory pancreatic duct-portal vein fistula created during ERC...
متن کاملClinical relevance of an unfused pancreatic duct system.
In man, the main pancreatic duct is normally derived from ventral and dorsal embryological buds of the pancreas. In a minority of people, failure of fusion of the two buds results in separate drainage of the dorsal and ventral pancreas, so that the accessory duct provides the main drainage for the gland. Patients with this anomaly demonstrated at endoscopic retrograde pancreatography (ERP) have...
متن کاملA patent accessory pancreatic duct prevents pancreatitis following endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography.
BACKGROUND/AIM Pancreatitis is the most common and feared complication of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). We previously examined patency of the accessory pancreatic duct (APD) by dye injection endoscopic retrograde pancreatography (ERP). APD patency was found in 43% of 291 control cases who had no particular changes in the head of the pancreas compared to only 6% in patie...
متن کاملAccessory cystic duct identification in laparoscopic cholecystectomy
We report the case of a 53-year-old lady who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy and was found to have an accessory cystic duct close to the fundus. Careful dissection of the liver bed was done and the duct clipped preventing a bile leak. The presence of such ducts though rare should be identified during surgery to prevent potential complications.
