Title: [Heterotopic pancreas is a rare cause of bleeding and intestinal intussusception]. Author: Andersen MW, Østergaard JR, Tøtterup A, Jespersen ML, Grønbæk H. Journal: Ugeskr Laeger; 2015 Jan 12; 177(3):V09140486. PubMed ID: 25613097. Abstract: A young female had neurofibromatosis, annular pancreas and heterotopic pancreas, a combination not previously described. The tumour caused bleeding and intussusception of the distal part of the small intestine. An extensive range of examinations was initiated; however, the diagnosis was not clarified until explorative laparoscopy was performed. Heterotopic pancreas is worth considering as an infrequent cause of gastrointestinal bleeding and invagination.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
