contents Different clinical aspects of Wirsungocele: case series of three patients and review of literature Djalma Ernesto Coelho José Celso Ardengh Eder Rios de Lima-Filho José Flávio Coelho Medicina pancreatitis pancreatic ducts endoscopic sphincterotomy Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography The association of Santorinicele with pancreas divisum has been described. This anatomic condition creates ideal conditions for acute pancreatitis episodes and chronic abdominal pain. Saccular dilation of main pancreatic duct has also been described as incidental finding and causing episodes of acute pancreatitis. However, there is no description of associated chronic abdominal pain. Three detailed cases of Wirsungocele demonstrated by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancretography are presented. Two of them had episodes of acute pancreatitis and one had chronic abdominal pain. All patients were treated by endoscopic biliopancreatic sphincterotomy. After a follow-up for more than two years, none presents clinical recurrence. Endoscopic biliopancreatic sphincterotomy for symptomatic patients with this anatomic condition seems safe and effective. 2011 artículo científico 2469-1119 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=199322440013 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1993 Acta Gastroenterológica Latinoamericana application/pdf Sociedad Argentina de Gastroenterología Acta Gastroenterológica Latinoamericana (Argentina) Num.3 Vol.41
