“…Presence of upper gastrointestinal obstruction with annular pancreas without obstructive jaundice in elderly patients should not distract from possible co-existing PDC. The diagnosis is currently based on a multi-modality approach with abdominal CT scan and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and biopsy [24][25][26][27][28].…”

“…Apparently, the incidence of all screened disorders was higher than that reported in most of the world with exception of congenital hypothyroidism (CHT). [2][3][4][5] The authors reported an incidence of 1:7175 for CHT using dry blood spot (DBS) filter paper. This incidence is far below that reported from the neighbouring countries, Table 1 Alfadhel et al proposed three reasons to explain the low incidence of CHT in their screened population.…”

Annular pancreas is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by the band of pancreatic tissue of variable width partially or completely encircling the duodenum. This abnormality, although at times clinically silent or may be the cause of a broad spectrum of diseases. Complications range from neonatal intestinal obstruction to more complex pathologies in the adult such as pancreatitis, duodenal stenosis or duodenal or gastric ulceration. This condition is important to recognise, because radiologists are usually the first person to diagnose such condition. We report the case of a young patient of 10 years old female hospitalized for epigastric pain and repeated episodes of vomiting, in whom radiological investigations showed an annular pancreas. No other congenital anomaly of the intra-abdominal organs was noted. Both the rarity of this congenital abnormality and its probability of successful correction by surgical means have prompted us to make the following presentation.
