A patent of accessory pancreatic duct might protect the pancreas from the harmful consequences of obstruction of the Wirsung duct, but also promote biliary pancreatic reflux during obstruction of the common channel [2]. Our aim is to determine the anatomy and morphology of this duct and its variations.

Fusion variations of the pancreatic ducts were studied to elucidate the significance of such variations. We classified structural fusion anomalies of the main and accessory pancreatic ducts on endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography (ERCP) in 37 patients with anomalous arrangement of the pancreaticobiliary ductal system (AAPB). The fusion variations of the pancreatic ducts were classifi...
متن کاملSphincter of Oddi dysfunction and bile duct microlithiasis in acute idiopathic pancreatitis.

Two potential etiologies, microlithiasis and sphincter of Oddi dysfunction, are discussed in this review. Gallbladder microlithiasis, missed on transcutaneous ultrasound, is reported as the cause of idiopathic acute pancreatitis in a wide frequency range of 6%-80%. The best diagnostic technique for ga...
متن کاملPancreatobiliary disorders associated with pancreaticobiliary maljunction.
AIM To clarify the features of biliary carcinomas and pancreatic disorders associated with pancreaticobiliary maljunction (PBM). METHOD A total of 107 PBM patients with biliary dilatation were reviewed (52 with and 55 without PBM). Clinicopathological findings of biliary carcinomas, and acute or chronic pancreatitis were examined in association with PBM. We also investigated pancreatographic ...
