  • Title: Induction of gastroduodenal prolapse by antral heterotopic pancreas.
    Author: Allison JW, Johnson JF, Barr LL, Warner BW, Stevenson RJ.
    Journal: Pediatr Radiol; 1995; 25(1):50-1. PubMed ID: 7761164.
    Abstract:
    Ectopic pancreas is the most common congenital anomaly in the gastric antrum. In some patients, there is a distinct tendency for this lesion to produce intermittent crampy abdominal pain by provoking gastroduodenal prolapse. This condition should be considered after a more distal prolapse from intussusception is excluded. An upper gastrointestinal series performed during an episode of symptoms may be diagnostic of this entity.
