Sažetak
Pancreatic heterotopia is a relatively rare condition that implies pancreatic tissue
anatomically separated from the main gland, showing no vascular or ductal continuity. It is known
to occur in many sites of gastrointestinal tract, with stomach being the most common one. This case
is of great interest because ectopic pancreatic tissue in jejunal wall presented as bowel obstruction.
The aim of this article is to provide a review of clinical, histopathologic and immunohistochemical
features of ectopic pancreatic tissue in jejunum, emphasizing the possible diagnostic pitfalls in
gastrointestinal tract, especially in its upper parts. Knowing the most common locations, imaging
features and histopathologic criteria, the diagnosis of pancreatic heterotopia could be successfully set
preoperatively. Associated complications are various and sometimes difficult to handle, so accurate and
precise diagnosis, as well as surgical resection, is often needed.
