Abstract
Heterotopic pancreas is a congenital disorder defined as the presence of pancreatic tissue in an abnormal location without any anatomical or vascular continuation with the main body of the pancreas. Most common locations are stomach, duodenum and jejunum. Rare cases have been documented in ileum, omentum, colon, gall bladder, cystic duct, spleen, liver, urinary bladder, lungs, fallopian tube, tongue and submandibular salivary gland. Ectopic pancreatic tissue in appendix and that too in a child is very rare. We present a case of a three year male child operated for acute appendicitis and microscopy revealed pancreatic tissue within the muscular layer of appendix.
