title: [Acute pancreatitis and ectopic pancreas].
abstract: We report the case of a 28-year-old woman with a pancreatic heterotopia presenting with a history of acute pancreatitis. Symptoms were epigastric pains. Abdomino-pelvic CT Scan revealed a tumor located in gastro-duodenal area. Exploratory surgery was performed, and the segment containing the mass was resected. Histopathologic examination of the lesion revealed heterotopic pancreatic tissue without malignancy.
