We report a case of acute relapsing pancreatitis associated with pancreas divisum, who underwent major papilla sphincterotomy after failed minor papilla cannulation. Long-term results were satisfactory. The possible explanations of the efficacy of major papilla endoscopic resection in this particular case are discussed.
