Rare presentations of enteric duplication cysts - Issue cover

Abstract

Duplication cysts of the alimentary canal are rare congenital anomalies which can be present in any part of the GIT, from the oral cavity till the anal canal. The clinical presentation primarily depends on the location of the cyst. A large number of such lesions can be diagnosed prenatally using ultrasonography. The main treatment modality for enteric duplication cysts is surgery. Most commonly, these present with pain in abdomen, bleeding, and sometimes with obstruction, including intussusception. However, a significant number of these lesions are diagnosed incidentally. Here we are presenting a series of 3 cases showing the rare presentations of duplication cysts.
