Aberrant pancreas is not susceptible to alcoholic pancreatitis

摘要

Three cases of chronic alcoholic pancreatitis associated with aberrant pancreas are reported. All three patients underwent laparotomy, and an aberrant pancreas was found in the jejunum of each of the three patients. Microscopic examination of the aberrant pancreas did not show any changes suggestive of chronic pancreatitis, despite severe chronic pancreatitis in the main pancreas.
