Abstract :
The occurrence of heterotopic pancreas, an uncommon developmental abnormality, is frequently detected as an incidental finding. In a histopathological study, a 35-year-old woman with cholecystitis was unexpectedly found to have a 5 mm diameter heterotopic pancreatic tissue attached to the gallbladder wall, presenting as a nodule. Following the surgical removal of the gallbladder (cholecystectomy), the patient experienced a smooth recovery. Identifying this condition may offer valuable insights into its clinical significance.
