Abstract
An anatomical study was made of the pancreas of the Syrian hamster (Mestocricetus auratus). The pancreas was found to consist of a head and three well-defined segments: the duodenal, gastric, and splenic lobes. The duct systems from each of the three lobes converge at the head region of the pancreas and develop into two major ducts which enter the distal portion of the common bile duct to form a common duct. The tails of the gastric and splenic lobes are connected by a string of omental fat which contains the major blood vessels of the two lobes. The gross anatomy of the hamster pancreas differs to some extent from that of the mouse and rat, but the principal structure of the ducts is similar.
