Ventral pancreatitis, a rare condition affecting the embryologic ventral pancreas, is infrequently documented. This case report details a patient diagnosed with ventral pancreatitis using advanced imaging techniques.

Area of Science:

Gastroenterology
Medical Imaging

Background:

Ventral pancreatitis is a rare clinical entity.
Documented cases are scarce, with only three prior reports in English literature.
Previous reports associated ventral pancreatitis with pancreas divisum.

Observation:

This report details a patient with suspected ventral pancreatitis.
Diagnosis was initially suggested by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) confirmed the diagnosis.

Findings:

The case highlights a patient with ventral pancreatitis.
ERCP and MRI were instrumental in diagnosis.
This adds to the limited case series of ventral pancreatitis.

Related Experiment Videos

Implications:

This case expands the understanding of ventral pancreatitis.
It underscores the utility of combined ERCP and MRI in diagnosing rare pancreatic conditions.
Further research may elucidate the association with pancreas divisum.
