Hemosuccus pancreaticus with a variant of separate orifices in the duodenal papilla treated with a covered self-expandable metal stent.

This is the peculiar report of endoscopic treatment with metal stent in a patient with hemosuccus pancreaticus by pancreatic cancer, who refused surgical treatment due to old age and patient's intention. Reports of endoscopic hemostasis in hemosuccus pancreaticus are very rare. Moreover our case showed variant location of separate orifices in major duodenal papilla. This rare variant should be handled with importance because late recognition could result in unnecessary manipulation and treatment failure.
