Two patients with cystic dystrophy of duodenum and chronic inflammation of duodenally ectopic pancreatic tissue were successfully operated on. Both cases clinically demonstrated abdominal pain and duodenal obstruction. Absence of substantial tissue changes in "main" pancreas allowed execution of pancreas-preserving operation. Thus, subtotal duodenectomy was performed in the first patient. The second patient had resection of vertical branch of the duodenum with intestinal fragment replacement. Extensive periorganic fibrosis in both cases substantially complicated verification of anatomic structures and dissection.

Introduction And Importance: Duodenum-preserving pancreatic resections (DPPHR) is a reasonable surgical option for benign or low-grade malignant tumours of the pancreatic head. Several techniques have been proposed, with or without common biliary duct preservation.

Case Presentation: We report for the first time two cases of pancreas divisum treated with this technique and we illustrate two other cases of pancreatic disease in which this procedure was realized from January 2015 to January 2020 in the HM Sanchinarro University Hospital.
