Summary

Pancreatic heterotopia, a rare cause of non-ulcer dyspepsia, can be effectively treated. Local tumor excision led to complete symptom relief in all five patients studied.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Non-ulcer dyspepsia presents a diagnostic challenge, often lacking a clear etiology.
  • Pancreatic heterotopia is an uncommon condition that can manifest with dyspeptic symptoms.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report on the clinical presentation and management of pancreatic heterotopia causing dyspepsia.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of surgical excision for this condition.

Main Methods:

  • Case series involving five patients diagnosed with pancreatic heterotopia.
  • Surgical management via local excision of the pancreatic heterotopia.
  • Follow-up assessment of symptom resolution post-surgery.

Main Results:

  • All five patients presented with symptoms attributed to pancreatic heterotopia.

  • Local excision was performed successfully in all cases.
  • A mean follow-up of 42 months revealed complete resolution of original dyspeptic symptoms in all patients.

    • Conclusions:

    • Pancreatic heterotopia, though uncommon, should be considered in the differential diagnosis of non-ulcer dyspepsia.
    • Local excision is a safe and effective treatment for symptomatic pancreatic heterotopia, offering long-term symptom relief.
