Hereditary pancreatitis: morphological pictures (ERCP) in the youngest member of a family.
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) pictures of the pancreatic duct and of the biliary tract are described in the youngest member of a family with hereditary pancreatitis. The endoscopic changes are very similar to those usually observed in patients affected by chronic relapsing pancreatitis. Morphological changes were particularly marked in the body and tail of the pancreas. However, no abnormal changes were observed in the biliary tract.
