Methods A total of 60 cases of heterotopic pancreas in gastrointestinal tract diagnosed through endoscopic ultrasonography and pathological examination were treated in our hospital in the recent 10 years. Their data were retrospectively analyzed. Results Among all the 60 patients, the lesions were located in duodenal bulb cavity in 3 cases, in duodenal descendent in 2 cases, in gastric angle in 3 cases,in the junction of gastric antrum and corpus ventriculi in 2 cases and in gastric antrum in 50 cases. All of the 60 patients were definitely diagnosed through endoscopy, endoscopic ultrasonography and pathological examination. 28 patients were treated by endoscopic high-frequency electronic resection, 2 patients were treated by endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR), 30 patients were treated by surgical operation; no operative complication was found, and satisfactory clinical effects had been observed in these patients. Conclusions Endoscopic ultrasonography has great value in the diagnosis and endoscopic therapy of heterotopic pancreas in gastrointestinal tract. It can provide the guide for the choice of treatment.
