Abstract:
We report two cases of mucinous ductal ectasia of the pancreas which showed characteristic pancreatoscopic findings. They also showed characteristic duodenoscopic findings such as patulous ampullary orifice and mucus leakage from the papilla, and underlying pathology was hyperplasia in one case and adenoma in the other case, The insertions of pancreatoscope into the main pancreatic duct were easy without previous sphincterotomy and whitish frog egg-like mucosa was noted in one case and finger-like papillary projection was noted in the other case.
