lüll Groove pancreatitis: spectrum of imaging findings and radiology-pathology correlation Raman SP; Salaria SN; Hruban RH; Fishman EKAJR Am J Roentgenol 2013[Jul]; 201 (1): W29-39OBJECTIVE: Groove pancreatitis is a rare form of chronic pancreatitis affecting the "groove" between the pancreatic head, duodenum, and common bile duct. The exact cause is unknown, although there are strong associations with long-term alcohol abuse, functional obstruction of the duct of Santorini, and Brunner gland hyperplasia. CONCLUSION: Unfortunately, differentiating groove pancreatitis from malignancy on the basis of imaging features, clinical presentation, or laboratory markers can be extraordinarily difficult, and the vast majority of these patients ultimately undergo a pancreaticoduodenectomy (Whipple procedure) because of an inability to completely exclude malignancy. In certain cases, however, the imaging features on CT and MRI can allow the radiologist to prospectively suggest the correct diagnosis.|*Diagnostic Imaging[MESH]|Biopsy[MESH]|Chronic Disease[MESH]|Contrast Media[MESH]|Diagnosis, Differential[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Pancreatectomy[MESH]|Pancreatitis/*diagnosis/pathology/surgery[MESH] |
