          Abstract

          La heterotopia pancreática (HP) es una lesión relativamente infrecuente, observada con mayor frecuencia en el estómago. En la mayoría de los casos laHP es asintomática, pero puede ocasionalmente acompañarse de dispepsia y hemorragia gastrointestinal superior. Se describe el caso de un hombre de 40 años de edad con obstrucción del vaciamiento gástrico, secundario a HP en el antro.

          Translated abstract

          Heterotopic pancreas (HP) is a relatively infrequent lesion most often found in the stomach. In the majority of cases, HP does not cause symptoms, but it can occasionally present as dyspepsia and upper gastrointestinal bleeding. This report describes the case of a 40-year-old man with gastric outlet obstruction resulting from HP in gastric antrum.

            Heterotopic pancreas in the stomach: CT findings.

            To describe the computed tomographic (CT) findings of heterotopic pancreas in the stomach. CT findings in 12 patients with heterotopic pancreas in the stomach were reviewed. Surgical resection (n = 11) or endoscopic excision (n = 1) was performed in cases of symptomatic heterotopic pancreas (n = 4), suspected submucosal tumors (n = 7), and gastric carcinoma (n = 1). Seven patients underwent helical CT with water as an oral contrast agent; five underwent nonhelical CT with water-soluble contrast material. Nine heterotopic pancreata were in the antrum and one each was in the body, fundus, and perigastric fat. Seven lesions were on the greater curvature aspect; five, on the lesser curvature aspect. Common CT findings were well-defined oval or round masses with smooth or serrated margins in the gastric antral wall. Four of the seven lesions in which helical CT was performed enhanced similarly to normal pancreas. Preoperatively, CT depicted 11 of the 12 lesions, but CT findings were interpreted correctly as heterotopic pancreas in only two; the remaining 10 were misinterpreted as other lesions. Atypical findings were cystic dilatation of heterotopic pancreatic duct in two, unusual location in the fundus or perigastric fat in two, and malignant transformation in one. CT findings of heterotopic pancreas in the stomach appear to be nonspecific for diagnosis, except for location.

              Carcinoma arising from ectopic pancreas in the stomach: endosonographic detection of malignant change.

              We present a case of a submucosal tumor in the stomach that was suspicious for malignancy on preoperative endosonography. The resected tumor was histologically diagnosed as a ductal adenocarcinoma that originated in ectopic pancreatic tissue in the gastric wall. Although malignant transformation in ectopic pancreas is extremely rare, it remains an important consideration in the differential diagnosis of gastric submucosal masses.
