In this exclusive with Medical Dialogues, Isra Zaman discusses an original case report on Groove Pancreatitis, a rare form of focal chronic pancreatitis affecting the pancreaticoduodenal groove. Published in the Journal of Clinical Imaging Science (JCIS), the report details the diagnostic complexity of Groove Pancreatitis, particularly on imaging studies. The case, presented by clinicians from NKP Salve Institute of Medical Sciences, involved a 21-year-old male with upper abdominal pain. Imaging revealed characteristic findings such as hypoechoic lesions in the pancreatic groove, duodenal wall thickening, and para-duodenal cysts. The article underscores the importance of maintaining a high index of suspicion to prevent unnecessary surgical interventions. This journal is published by Scientific Scholar.
