DEVELOPMENTThe pancreas develops in
two parts, both of
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
which arise from the
endoderm of the
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
primitive duodenum.The ventral bud develops
more caudally as a
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
diverticulum.
DEVELOPMENT
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
DEVELOPMENTThe dorsal bud is the first to
appear, as a diverticulum from the
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
dorsal wall of the duodenum. This
eventually forms the whole of the
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
neck, body and tail of the gland,together with part of the head.
Between the fourth and eighth
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
week, the ventral bud rotatesposteriorly in a clockwise fashion to
fuse with the dorsal bud.
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
DEVELOPMENTAL ANOMALIESPANCREATIC DIVISUM
Most common congenital anomaly
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
Results from failure of dorsal and ventral
ducts to fuse
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
Detected in 5% to 10% of population inautopsy studies
ANNULAR PANCREAS
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
Rare congenital anomaly
Ring of pancreatic tissue surrounds the
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
duodenumMay be partial or complete
1 in every 12 000 to 15 000 live births
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
DEVELOPMENTAL ANOMALIESECTOPIC PANCREAS
Described as pancreatic tissue that lacks anatomic or
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
vascular continuity with the normal pancreas.
Usually asymptomatic and occurs as incidental
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
finding.AGENESIS AND HYPOPLASIA
Total agenesis is extremely rare and incompatible
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
with life.
Hypoplasia result from absence of ventral or dorsal
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
pancreatic bud.DEVELOPMENTAL ANOMALIES
ACCESSORY PANCREATIC LOBE
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
Extremely rare anomalyAccessory lobe of pancreatic tissue originating from
main pancreatic gland.
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
May contain an aberrant duct
ANSA PANCREATICA
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
Rare anatomical variation.Communication between main pancreatic and
accessory pancreatic duct.
--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---
Predisposing factor in patients with idiopathic acute
pancreatitis.
