Abstract

Dorsal pancreatic agenesis is a rare congenital anomaly that may be associated with recurrent bouts of pancreatitis and diabetes mellitus. We report the case of a 21-year-old man newly diagnosed with diabetes mellitus and agenesis of dorsal pancreas. A brief review of literature and association of both entities is presented.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on medication adherence

Live: Thursday 27th June 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
