Pancreatic arteriovenous malformations are rare anomalies of the pancreatic vasculature. While most cases are asymptomatic, some patients develop symptoms over time. We describe a patient with angor abdominalis due to a pancreatic arteriovenous malformation. This anomaly was successfully treated with a pancreatoduodenectomy with Roux-en-Y gastrojejunal anastomosis. Keywords: pancreatic arteriovenous malformation, abdominal angina, pancreatoduodenectomy. |
