Observation:

  • This report details four cases of heterotopic pancreas.
  • The patients presented with various complications.

Findings:

  • Symptomatic heterotopic pancreas can manifest as gastric outlet obstruction, gastrointestinal bleeding, or obstructive jaundice.
  • Associated conditions include Meckel's diverticulum.

Implications:

  • Early recognition of heterotopic pancreas is crucial for managing potential complications.
