Ampullary Carcinoma in a Patient with Agenesis of the Dorsal Pancreas: A Case Report

Authors: Jitendra H. Mistry, Amitabh Yadav, Samiran Nundy

Published in: Indian Journal of Surgery | Special Issue 1/2015

Abstract

The most common congenital anomaly of the pancreas is pancreatic divisum (Tadokoro et al. in Anat Res Int 2011:1–7, 2011). Agenesis of the dorsal pancreas is extremely rare (Schnedl et al. in World J Gastroenterol 15(3):376–377, 2009). We are reporting a case of agenesis of dorsal pancreas presented with ampullary carcinoma.
