title: Laparoscopic enucleation of insulinoma in a patient with annular pancreas: a rare case.
abstract: BACKGROUND
  Insulinoma and annular pancreas are both rare disorders. In this report, we describe a patient who had insulinoma in association with an annular pancreas.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Because the computed tomography scan revealed no relationship between the tumor and the major pancreatic duct, we performed a laparoscopic insulinoma enucleation. As for the asymptomatic annular pancreas, no bypass procedure was performed. The patient recovered well.
