Pancreas divisum has been implicated as a cause of pancreatitis. Pseudocyst development in association with chronic pancreatitis has also been observed in a few patients with this anomaly. The association of pancreatic abscess with pancreas divisum has not been observed previously. The case herein reported illustrates a coincidental finding of pancreas divisum in a patient who presented with a pancreatic abscess.

胰腺分裂被认为是胰腺炎的一个病因。在少数患有这种异常的患者中，也观察到了与慢性胰腺炎相关的假性囊肿形成。此前尚未观察到胰腺脓肿与胰腺分裂之间的关联。本文报道的病例显示了在一名患有胰腺脓肿的患者中偶然发现胰腺分裂的情况。
