    The duodenum is the first part of the small intestines.When you click on this site, go down pass where thepicture Figure #1099 is. (This picture shows howthe pancreas is surrounded partially by the intestines)There it explains the location of where the lesion islocated:The head of the pancreas is lodged within the curve ofthe duodenum. Its upper border is overlapped by thesuperior part of the duodenum. The angle of junctionof the lower and left lateral borders froms a prolongation,termed the UNCINATE PROCESS. In the grove betweenthe duodenum and the right lateral and lower borders infront are the anastomosing superior and inferior pancreaticoduodenal arteries. You can see that this is similar to what they have saidin the test results. This is the location of the lesion( abnormal tissue) or dysplasia (abnormal cells) thatthey found. If you want to see a better, more up close picture, youcan click on this link: 2…uncinate process of pancreasNumber 12 is the duodenumThey are calling this dysplasia. Abnormal tissue or cellsare usually the first sign that it may turn into cancer…butit is not as yet. At least they are not stating that it iscancer, after the biopsy they did. Since they are statingit is high grade…it means that it really abnormal. I hope this is of some help. The biopsy would be moreof a determination of the true diagnosis because theyare looking at the actual tissue of the area and not justfilms (pictures) of it.
