Ectopic pancreas as a cause of gastric outlet obstruction in an infant.
We report a one-month-old male child who presented with clinical and radiological features of gastric outlet obstruction. Surgical exploration showed presence of a prepyloric mass; histological examination of the resected specimen confirmed presence of ectopic pancreatic tissue. The child is well 8 months later.
