Heterotopic gastric mucosa and pancreatic tissue in the skin of the abdominal wall.
A lesion in the upper abdominal wall of a 10-year-old boy had been excised twice at the age of 3 years at another hospital but the lesion recurred shortly thereafter. We completely excised this lesion and histological examination showed the presence of heterotopic gastric mucosa and pancreatic tissue in the skin of the abdominal wall.
