Ectopic pancreas tissue in the posterior mediastinum
Abstract: The occurrence of ectopic pancreas in the mediastinum is rare. Herein, we report a 22-year-old female who presented with right shoulder pain, dysphagia, fever and headaches. Chest computer tomography revealed a mass in the posterior mediastinum with accompanying signs of acute mediastinitis. Needle biopsy and fine-needle aspiration revealed ectopic gastral tissue and ectopic pancreas tissue, respectively. Surgical resection was attempted due to recurring acute pancreatitis episodes. However, due to chronic-inflammatory adhesions of the mass to the tracheal wall, en-bloc resection was not possible without major tracheal resection. Since then, recurring pancreatitis episodes have been treated conservatively with antibiotics. We report this case due to its differing clinical and radiological findings in comparison to previous case reports, none of which pertained a case of ectopic pancreas tissue in the posterior mediastinum with recurring acute pancreatitis and mediastinitis
