AbstractAgenesis of dorsal bud of the pancreas is an extremely rare congenital anomaly which results in absence of neck, body and tail of the adult pancreas. It may be associated with number of clinical features like diabetes mellitus, abdominal pain and chronic pancreatitis. Because of its rarity, we are reporting a case of agenesis of dorsal pancreas associated with early onset diabetes. Ultrasonography and Computed tomography showed absence of neck, body and tail of pancreas anterior to splenic vein and portal confluence; however head and uncinate process were normally present. Patient was thus diagnosed as agenesis of dorsal bud of pancreas.

A horseshoe adrenal gland is a rare congenital anomaly found almost exclusively in neonates and infants based on autopsy studies. It is a term used to describe a solitary adrenal gland situated in the midline, posterior to the inferior vena cava and abdominal aorta. To date, in the literature, there have been very few cases documented in adults and they have also been reported to be associated with other co-existing intra-abdominal, vascular and vertebral congenital anomalies. We describe a rare case of an asymptomatic adult patient who was incidentally found to have a horseshoe adrenal gland as well as a Type 1 diastematomyelia.

Ulnar dimelia is a rare congenital anomaly of the upper extremity. The condition presents with double ulnae forearm and polydactyly with complete absence of radius bone and thumb. Clinically it presents not only as functional deformity but also as cosmetic deformity. The case presented here is of a one-and-a-half-year-old male baby, born with right side ulnar dimelia with no other musculoskeletal defect. We believe that the case presented here deserves reporting not only because of the rarity of the disease but also due to its difficult management requiring multiple staged operations and henceforth consequent neglect on the part of parents. An attempt is also made to do a brief literature review. Keywords: Ulnar dimelia; polydactyly; ulna; radius; thumb
