The detailed anatomical knowledge of pacas is very important for conservation, experimental studies and commercialization because studies in literature about wild species are scarce. The pancreas of paca has lobes organized in diffuse branches at the macroscopic level and microscopically this organ has a loose connective tissue layer, originating septa that divide the gland into lobes composed of acini and pancreatic islets.571-576poranatomyhistologypancreasrodentArtigo10.1590/1678-4162-10325S0102-09352019000200571WOS:000470236100027Acesso abertoS0102-09352019000200571.pdf
