Kim, Park, Park, Shin, Lee, Kim, Bae, and Kim: Diagnosis of Annular Pancreas Using Minimum Intensity Projection of Multidetector Row CT: Case Report

Abstract

Annular pancreas is a rare congenital abnormality characterized by a ring of pancreatic tissue encircling the second portion of the duodenum, and it is definitively diagnosed by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. We present here a case of annular pancreas that was diagnosed by the minimum intensity projection technique of multidetector row CT. On the CT scan, the annular pancreas was demonstrated as the pancreatic tissue with an aberrant pancreatic duct encircling the duodenum.
