Case Report: Heterotopic Pancreatic Tissue Leading to Acute on Chronic Cholecystitis.

Heterotopic (ectopic) pancreatic tissue refers to tissue located outside the borders of the main pancreas. It is rarely found in gallbladders and can cause biliary disease, with only a few documented cases in the surgical literature. Here, we present the unusual case of a 21-year-old female with acute on chronic cholecystitis caused by obstruction of the cystic duct with ectopic pancreatic tissue.
