Bifid pancreas, a rare duct anomaly, presents unique imaging findings. This study details its appearance on computed tomography (CT) and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), alongside chronic pancreatitis.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Radiology
  • Anatomical Pathology

Background:

  • Bifid pancreas is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by a bifurcated main pancreatic duct.
  • Previous descriptions of bifid pancreas primarily focused on pancreatographic appearances.
  • The computed tomographic (CT) appearance of bifid pancreas has not been previously documented.

Observation:

  • A case of bifid pancreas was identified in a patient with alcohol-induced chronic pancreatitis.
  • The study utilized both endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and CT imaging.
  • Detailed imaging characteristics of the bifid pancreatic duct were observed.

Findings:

  • The study presents the ERCP and CT findings of a bifid pancreas.
  • This is the first report describing the computed tomographic appearance of this rare pancreatic anomaly.

Related Experiment Videos

  • The observed CT features provide a basis for diagnosing bifid pancreas using this modality.
  • Implications:

    • This case report expands the understanding of bifid pancreas imaging.
    • It highlights the utility of CT in diagnosing this rare anatomical variation.
    • Radiologists and gastroenterologists can use these findings for improved diagnosis and patient management.
