Duodenal duplication is a rare cause of acute pancreatitis in children. We report a case of acute pancreatitis in which abdominal sonography revealed an enlarged hypoechoic edematous pancreas with mildly dilated main pancreatic duct and a cystic structure with layered wall in the second part of duodenum. Abdominal CT yielded similar findings. The diagnosis of duodenal duplication was confirmed at surgery and subsequent histopathologic examination.
十二指肠重复畸形是儿童急性胰腺炎的罕见病因。我们报告一例急性胰腺炎病例,腹部超声显示胰腺肿大、低回声、水肿,主胰管轻度扩张,十二指肠第二部有一个壁呈分层状的囊性结构。腹部CT检查结果相似。手术及后续组织病理学检查证实为十二指肠重复畸形。
