Gastric cystic dystrophy in heterotopic pancreas demonstrating annular appearance

Cystic dystrophy in heterotopic pancreas (CDHP), an uncommon complication of heterotopic pancreas, occurs most often in the duodenal wall. We report a rare case of CDHP in the stomach. Preoperative diagnosis was made by upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and abdominal radiological studies. Radiological studies revealed an annular cystic appearance of CDHP, characterizing this rare entity. We describe the radiological–pathological correlation of CDHP and discuss the imaging findings.
