Abstract
ARMENTEROS TERAN, Saúl et al. Ictericia mecánica por páncreas anular: Presentación de un caso. Rev Cubana Cir [online]. 1997, vol.36, n.3, pp. 202-205. ISSN 1561-2945.
A case of a 34-year-old male with obstructive icterus and epigastralgia of 3 months of evolution was presented. The gastroduodenal examination with barium shows dilatation of the duodenal bulb and stenosis of the second portion (that prevented the endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography). Dilatation of the biliary extrahepatic tree and stenosis of the distal choledocus were confirmed by translaparoscopic cholecystocholangiography. Annular pancreas and pyloric peptic ulcers were found during the operation. The treatment consisted in vagectomy, choledochojejunostomy, and gastrojejunostomy. Clinical and surgical aspects of practical interest for the diagnosis and treatment of this uncommon embryopathia in the adult are reviewed
