RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Partial pancreas di visum JF Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine JO Cleve Clin J Med FD Cleveland Clinic SP 33 OP 37 VO 54 IS 1 A1 Wolf, Douglas C. A1 Sivak, Michael V. YR 1987 UL http://www.ccjm.org/content/54/1/33.abstract AB Pancreas divisum is a well known condition that results when the embryologic dorsal and ventral pancreatic buds fail to fuse. An association between pancreas divisum and acute recurrent pancreatitis has been suggested. The authors report the radio-graphic finding of partial pancreas divisum in which a rudimentary connection persists between the ventral and dorsal portions of the pancreatic ductal system. Its clinical significance is uncertain but may be similar to that of pancreas divisum proper.
