Abstract :
Groove pancreatitis, a rare form of
chronic pancreatitis which affects the
groove between the superior aspect of
the pancreatic head, the duodenum, and
the common bile duct. It is a rare form of
pancreatitis, and only a few descriptions
of it exist in the radiology and pathology
literature. Here we report a case of
groove pancreatitis in a middle aged
