Duodenal stenosis caused by cystic dystrophy in heterotopic pancreas: Report of a case
Surgery Today, 09/28/09

Yoshida N et al. – The authors strongly doubted the presence of a malignant submucosal tumor in the duodenum based on the findings of diagnostic imaging, and a pancreaticoduodenectomy was thus performed. Histopathologically, the lesion was diagnosed to be CDHP. The postoperative course was uneventful. The patient was symptomatic but was free of any symptoms after surgery. He continues to be regularly followed up on an outpatient basis and has had no recurrence of symptoms. This case demonstrates the need to consider CDHP in the differential diagnosis as a rare cause of duodenal stenosis.
