Description
Dora Laczko and colleagues describe a two thousand twenty-four case report they call a first in the medical literature. A fifty-eight-year-old man developed severe pancreatitis after alcohol use. Scans showed his whole pancreas had died.
The dead tissue later passed through a spontaneous opening into his duodenum. It then travelled into his small bowel and jammed there like a stone, causing a high-grade blockage. Surgeons removed it through a small bowel incision, leaving the pancreas bed untouched. He went home on insulin and enzyme replacements. The case warns doctors about a rare route to bowel obstruction.
