dc.description.abstract20-year-old female patient was admitted with complaints of girdle-like abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting. A history of pancreatitis 2 years ago was found in the patient’s anamnesis. Physical examination showed tenderness in the epigastric region, other system examinations were normal. In laboratory tests, amylase was found as 1249 ıu/l, lipase was found as 1068 u/l, CRP (C-Reaktif Protein) was found as 49.83mg/l and they were found to be high. Liver function tests, kidney function tests and electrolytes were found to be normal. In the abdomen ultrasonography, pancreas was reported to have increased size and mild edema. The patient was hospitalized with these findings and intravenous fluid replacement was started. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) was performed on the patient whose vital findings were stable. MRCP showed that common bile duct and pancreatic duct were joined at 17 mm proximal from the normal anatomic location. Anomalous pancreaticobiliary junction (APBJ) is a rare congenital anomaly and in recent years its diagnosis frequency has increased due to the widespread use of advanced radiological examinations such as MRCP. The purpose of this case presentation was to present the APBJ that we detected with MRCP in a patient with recurrent pancreatitis attacks.en_US
