Antral bulge heterotopic pancreas is a congenital disease, usually 3-6 cm away from the pylorus on the large curve side of the gastric antrum. Antral
bulge heterotopic pancreas is usually related to abnormal development of the patient during embryonic period. Antral bulge heterotopic pancreas also has pancreatic function, which can secrete protease, leading to increased protease content in the patient's body, eroding the stomach and duodenal mucosa. Antral bulge heterotopic pancreas is mainly treated by surgery, such as heterotopic pancreatectomy, subtotal gastrectomy, diverticulectomy, etc., which can promote the recovery of the disease.
