Abstract :

 Background: Pancreatico biliary ductal union is a complex anatomical and functional entity. An anomalous pancreaticobiliary ductal union (APBDU) describes the abnormal junction of the pancreatic duct and common bile duct that occurs outside the duodenal wall to form a long common channel (> 15 mm). There are a variety of pancreaticobiliary diseases that are associated with APBDU. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of anomalous pancreaticobiliary ductal junction in cadaveric specimen Methods: A cross-sectional, descriptive study was done in the Department of Anatomy, Madurai Medical College, based on collection of 42 cadaveric specimen of male & female human pancreas. Results: In the present study, when the common channel was measured, 41% showed a channel length more than 3mm, 56% showed a channel length upto 3mm and 3% greater than 12mm. Conclusion: The prevalence of anomalous Pancreatico biliary ductal union is 3% among the specimen studied and those population of people are associated with congenital cystic dilatation of the common bile duct, biliary tract carcinoma , choledochal cyst and acute pancreatitis..
