| Popis: |
Circumportal pancreas is a rare anatomical variant in which anomalous pancreatic parenchyma entirely encircles the portal vein. A 60 years old female presented to us for CT enteroclysis with complaint of diffuse abdominal pain. Infrasplenic circumportal pancreas with anteportal pancreatic duct was reported, which is an incidental finding. It presents a diagnostic challenge for a radiologist because misinterpretation of circumportal pancreas as a pancreatic head mass can have a significant impact on clinical outcomes i.e. postoperative pancreatic fistula and can help surgeon to plan better approach for pancreatectomies. |
