... pancreas is an uncommon developmental mal- formation characterized by a ring of pancreatic tissue en- circling the duodenum, most commonly the descending part of the duodenum (Fig. 6)...
Annular pancreas is a congenital anomaly where pancreatic tissue encircles the duodenum. Current knowledge of endoscopic findings of annular pancreas is limited to small case series. The aim of this study is to describe the endoscopic and pancreatographic findings of patients with annular pancreas at a large tertiary care ERCP center. Methods:
