| Popis: | Intraluminal duodenal diverticulum is a rare congenital web of membrane which may be symptomatic when it becomes distended. This report describes a case revealed by presenting as an acute pancreatitis. The radiological findings are reported. The findings at CT, upper gastro-intestinal series, endoscopic ultrasound and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography are described and differential diagnostic features from choledochocele and duodenal duplication are discussed. By endoscopic ultrasonography, observation of a thin wall, without different layers such as choledochocele or duodenal duplication, may be useful for diagnosis. |
