Abstract
Heterotopic pancreas (HP) or ectopic pancreas is the presence of pancreatic tissue in anomalous location without any anatomic, vascular or neural continuity with the main body of the pancreas. We present here a case of a female who had a chronic abdominal epigastric pain. She had conservative treatment for two years .We diagnosed HP in the stomach. She had also sludge in the gallbladder. We performed laparoscopic cholecystectomy as well as we resect HP with clear margins in one procedure. Our patient was fully recovered and her pain vanished.
