Popis: | WEB This is a Web exclusive article. ifid tail of the pancreas (pancreas bifidum) is a rare developmental anatomic branching anomaly. Although most cases are detected incidentally, some patients may have peculiar clinical symptoms. We describe what are to the best of our knowledge the first documented findings of this condition on MRI and MR cholangiopancreatography (MRCP). Once diagnosed correctly, this benign anomaly does not require any specific therapy. |
