Enteric duplication cysts (EDCs) are benign congenital anomalies that are found incidentally in adults. Gastric duplication cysts (GDCs) are the least common subtype of EDC, but when located near the pancreas, may resemble other neoplastic conditions. We report a case of GDC adjacent to the pancreas with high cystic fluid amylase and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and 3 different epithelia (res...

Concurrence of duodenal atresia and gastric duplication cyst is extremely rare entity. We report a 6-day-old female neonate who presented with neonatal intestinal obstruction. X-ray abdomen showed double bubble sign. At laparotomy, a huge cystic structure attached to greater curvature of the stomach along with duodenal atresia of second part of duodenum was found. The cystic structure was excis...

The baby was born to a 24-year-old primigravida mother by cesarean section at 36 week gestation and weighed 2420 grams. Antenatal scan at 32 week gestation showed dilated bowel loops and polyhydramnios (Amniotic fluid index: 32 cm) suggestive of intestinal obstruction. He developed respiratory distress soon after birth and was referred to our unit. On examination, the baby had respiratory distr...

Enteric duplications are rare congenital anomalies found anywhere from mouth to anus. Colonic constitute about 13% of all enteric duplications. In this report a 6-year-old boy with chronic abdominal pain for duration last 2 years requiring intermittent hospital admissions was diagnosed as colonic duplication mimicking intestinal volvulus. Clinical findings nonspecific and definitive diagnosis c...

BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal tract (GIT) duplications are one of the rare congenital anomalies and can occur in any portion of the gastrointestinal tract but are more commonly encountered in small intestine. The duplication cysts cause symptoms like abdominal mass and intestinal obstruction requiring surgery or may remain asymptomatic. We are reporting our 15 years' experience duplication cysts ...
