Pancreatic pseudocyst, pancreatitis, and incomplete pancreas divisum in a child treated with endotherapy: a case report

Pancreatic divisum (PD) is caused by the lack of fusion of the pancreatic duct during the embryonic period. Considering the incidence rate of PD, clinicians lack an understanding of the disease, which is usually asymptomatic. Some patients with PD may experience recurrent pancreatitis and progress t...

description Pancreatic divisum (PD) is caused by the lack of fusion of the pancreatic duct during the embryonic period. Considering the incidence rate of PD, clinicians lack an understanding of the disease, which is usually asymptomatic. Some patients with PD may experience recurrent pancreatitis and progress to chronic pancreatitis. Recently, a 13-year-old boy presented with pancreatic pseudocyst, recurrent pancreatitis, and incomplete PD, and we report this patient’s clinical data regarding the diagnosis, medical imagining, and treatment. The patient had a history of recurrent pancreatitis and abdominal pain. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography was chosen for diagnosis of PD, pancreatitis, and pancreatic pseudocyst, followed by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, minor papillotomy, pancreatic pseudocyst drainage, and stent implantation. In the follow-up, the pseudocyst lesions were completely resolved, and no recurrent pancreatitis has been observed.
