Heterotopic gastric mucosa accompanied by aberrant pancreas in the duodenum.
An operated case of a heterotopic gastric mucosa, accompanied by an aberrant pancreas tissue, in the bulb of the duodenum was reported. A 40-yr-old man complained of epigastralgia and was diagnosed to have a protruding lesion in the duodenum by roentgenological and endoscopic examinations. Partial excision of the duodenal wall including the mass was performed. Cut surface of the specimen showed a yellowish-whitish mass in the submucosal through the subserosal layers, which was covered by a papillary elevated mucous membrane. Histologically the mass was an aberrant pancreas of the Heinrich I-type and the mucous membrane covering the mass was a heterotopic gastric mucosa, consisting of completely developed fundic glands.
