“…The MRI findings of this entity have not been described previously. Our findings on MRI correlate well with previously described CT findings, which included detection of an air-fluid level (10,11). On MRI, both HASTE and True-FISP techniques demonstrated air-fluid levels.…”

The purpose of our study was to describe the imaging findings of juxtapapillary diverticulum on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The MRI and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) examinations of 14 patients with juxtapapillary diverticula that were diagnosed on endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) (N ϭ 8) or endoscopy (N ϭ 6) were retrospectively evaluated. T1-weighted spoiled gradient-echo, T2-weighted half Fourier single shot fast spin-echo (HASTE), and T2-weighted True FISP (fast imaging with steady state precession) images and thin-slice MRCP images were obtained on all patients. In five patients, diluted gadolinium DPTA (1/ 100) was used as an oral contrast. T2-weighted True FISP and HASTE images demonstrated air-fluid levels within all diverticula. Hyperintense oral contrast on T1-weighted spoiled gradient-echo images aided detection of the smaller diverticula. MRCP images obtained in the coronal plane best demonstrated the relationship of the diverticula to the papilla. MRI with the use of HASTE, True FISP, and oral contrast-enhanced T1-weighted sequences was able to depict juxtapapillary diverticula in our series.

“…Sometimes diverticulum becomes symptomatic with epigastric pain, nausea and vomiting after meal. In 1% to 5%, complications occur such as hemorragic ulcer (25%), acute pancreatitis (20%) by stretching the major papillar with Oddi's sphincter dysfunction, and proximal digestive obstruction [3]. In the present case, CT scan nicely demonstrates the mechanism of pancreatitis.…”

Intraluminal duodenal diverticulum in a child concomitant with an entrapped coin and a duodenal polyp

Intraluminal duodenal diverticulum (IDD) is a rare congenital anomaly. We present the report of an 8-year-old girl who had an entrapped coin in an IDD for 3 years that was associated with recurrent pancreatitis. Besides, a duodenoduodenal intussusception was found during the course of investigation and it seemed that a concomitant duodenal polyp contributed to the development of the intussusception. In view of the rarity of each of the aforementioned situations and the improbability of these conditions occurring together, this unusual and possibly unique case is therefore reported here.
