ABSTRACT
A 40-year-old man was presented with recurrent abdominal pain. An ERCP (Endoscopic RETROGRADE Cho-langiopancreatography) revealed complete pancreas divisum and pancreatic duct stricture with a stone. Initially, endoscopic stone removal through the minor papilla origice was unsuccessful due to an impacted pancreatic stone associated with a dominant stricture at the dorsal pancreatic duct. Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) was performed twice and the impacted pancreatic stone was fragmented. After ESWL, endoscopic stone removal became possible and pancreatic stenting was performed for the correction of the dorsal duct stricture. This case in herein reported in which ESWL was successful in treating an impacted dorsal pancreatic duct stone associated with pancreas divisum.
