ABSTRACT
A total of 101 normal pancreatograms were analysed in a major referral hospital in India in an attempt to establish normal standards of pancreatic ductal morphology in Indian population. Ductal position, course, caliber, length and variations of anatomy were analysed. Most often (39%) ampulla was seen at the level of second lumbar vertebra, commonly (54%) within 30-39 mm from the lateral margin of right side of corresponding vertebral body. Most common ductal course (21.78%) was ascending-horizontal-horizontal type. Mean ductal diameters in the head, body and tail of the pancreas were 2.63, 1.95, 0.99 mm in individuals aged less than or equal to 40 yr and 3.31, 2.34, 1.23 mm in those greater than 40 yr, respectively. A significant (r = 0.46; P less than 0.001) increase in ductal size was seen between less than or equal to 40 yr and after 40 yr of age. Mean ductal length was 16.10 and 16.58 cm in subjects less than or equal to 40 yr of age and greater than 40 yr respectively. Duct of Santorini was visualised in 6.6 per cent subjects.
