Two cases with the polysplenia syndrome also had a short pancreas. To the best of our knowledge the radiologic characteristics of this anatomic anomaly have not yet been reported. Both cases were asymptomatic with regard to their anomaly-complex. The radiologic findings of the short "pancreas" are similar to the only pathologic description of this association. The awareness of this association led to the diagnosis of the second case after a few months only. A physician performing ERCP in the polysplenia syndrome should keep in mind the possible presence of the "short pancreas" when the whole length of the pancreatic duct is not visualized.
两例多脾综合征患者也存在胰腺短小的情况。据我们所知，这种解剖学异常的放射学特征尚未见报道。这两例患者对于其复杂的异常情况均无症状。短小“胰腺”的放射学表现与该关联的唯一病理描述相似。对这种关联的认识使得仅在几个月后就诊断出了第二例病例。在多脾综合征患者中进行内镜逆行胰胆管造影（ERCP）的医生，当胰管全长未显影时，应牢记可能存在“胰腺短小”的情况。
