Abstract: 

Dorsal pancreatic agenesis is an extremely rare developmental anomaly of gastrointestinal system. It is mostly an incidental finding and detected in adulthood. Pancreatic anomaly associated with renal positional defect is very rare association. We have reported a case of complete dorsal pancreas agenesis associated with crossed renal ectopia in a 30year-old gentleman who was investigated for gastric malignancy. Contrast enhanced computed tomography (CECT) abdomen is an important imaging to see the anomalous pancreas, abnormal renal position and evaluation of gastric malignancy for its further management. Upper abdominal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is a non-invasive imaging to see the pancreatic duct.
