“…The date of the mother's last menstruation was given as July, 19,1964; the expected date of delivery was April 21, 1965.…”

A Mass of Pancreatic and Gastric Heterotopia Causing a Small Bowel Obstruction in a 61-Year-Old Male

“…To the best of our knowledge, there were only 4 other cases in the literature that reported a combined heterotopia of pancreatic and gastric tissue [20–23]. In two of these cases, the heterotopic tissues were found in the large bowel and manifested as a diverticulum of the transverse colon in the first case [20] and an ulcerated mass at the splenic flexure that caused a lower gastrointestinal bleed in the second case [21].…”

“…In two of these cases, the heterotopic tissues were found in the large bowel and manifested as a diverticulum of the transverse colon in the first case [20] and an ulcerated mass at the splenic flexure that caused a lower gastrointestinal bleed in the second case [21]. In the third report, the combined heterotopic tissues were found incidentally in the gall bladder following a cholecystectomy [22], whereas, in the fourth and the most recently published case, the patient had an obstructive ileal tumor that contained HP, HGM with submucosal lipoma, and caused chronic abdominal pain [23].…”

The outlet patch: gastric heterotopia of the colorectum and anus

“…This was also reflected in the current study, as GH was detected in the rectum in 79% (26 of 33) of cases, followed by the anus (12%; four of 33) and colon (9%; three of 33). To date, only 11 cases (including three in the present study) have been reported in which GH have been identified involving parts of colon proximal to the rectum . To our knowledge, the current study (with 33 examples) is the largest series addressing GH involving the lower GI tract.…”

“…To our knowledge, the current study (with 33 examples) is the largest series addressing GH involving the lower GI tract. Most of the previously reported examples of GH of distal bowel have appeared as single case reports from various regions of the world …”
