[A case of groove pancreatitis observed from initial stage].
We report a case of groove pancreatitis. A 60-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of nausea and vomitting. CT showed a mass lesion in the groove between the pancreas head, duodenum and common bile duct. He was given a diagnosis of the groove pancreatitis, and underwent endoscopic balloon dilation. Groove pancreatitis is rare, and we discuss this case with references.
