The main pancreatic duct lies posteriorly within the head of the pancreas and adjacent to the retropancreatic part of the common bile duct. In 17 out of 25 (68%) autopsy specimens which were studied, the two ducts ran within 5 mm of each other for a mean distance of 3.9 cm. The pancreatitis which sometimes develops as a complication of instrumentation of the bile duct could be a result of damage to the main pancreatic duct.

主胰管位于胰腺头部后方，与胆总管胰腺后段相邻。在研究的25份尸检标本中，有17份（68%）两条导管彼此间距在5毫米以内，平均距离为3.9厘米。有时作为胆管器械操作并发症而发生的胰腺炎可能是主胰管受损的结果。
