Acute pancreatitis secondary to duodenoduodenal intussusception in duodenal adenoma.
Duodenoduodenal intussusception is a rare condition that is in general caused by a tumor. We describe duodenoduodenal intussusception secondary to a tubulovillous adenoma that caused acute pancreatitis in a 31-year-old female. We resected a duodenal tumor from the submucosal layer and then simply closed the duodenal wall. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first description of acute pancreatitis secondary to duodenoduodenal intussusception by tubulovillous adenoma in the second part of the duodenum in an adult.
