True or False: The duct of Wirsung and the duct of Santorini enter the duodenum together.

The correct response is that the duct of Wirsung, also known as the main pancreatic duct, does not enter the duodenum together with the duct of Santorini, which is an accessory pancreatic duct. Typically, the duct of Wirsung opens into the duodenum at the ampulla of Vater, where it enters alongside the common bile duct. In contrast, the duct of Santorini usually opens into the duodenum at a separate location, specifically at the minor duodenal papilla, which is located proximal to the major papilla.

This anatomical distinction underpins why the statement is false; the two ducts have different drainage points into the duodenum. Understanding the variations in the anatomy of pancreatic ducts is essential for properly diagnosing and treating conditions related to the pancreas and biliary system.
