Cyst formation in gastric heterotopic pancreas: report of two cases.
Cyst formation is an uncommon pathologic finding in heterotopic pancreas. It is sometimes reported in a duodenal location but very rarely in a gastric location and leads to very large lesions of unusual endoscopic and radiographic appearance. Two cases of gastric heterotopic pancreas are described in which cystic zones in the gastric wall were found at preoperative ultrasound or computed tomography.
