Concomitant pancreas divisum and double pylorus: a case report.
نویسنده
چکیده
Double pylorus (DP) is a rare condition that is usually discovered incidentally through an upper endoscopy (UE) examination. While acquired DP, which is the most common type, often develops as a complication of peptic ulcer disease (PUD), congenital DP can be isolated associated with other congenital abnormalities such as heterotopic pancreatic tissue or gastric duplication [1, 2]. This article presents the first case of DP associated with pancreas divisum (PD).
