A Rare Congenital Anomaly: Jejunal Duplication Cyst
Jejunal Duplication Cyst
Keywords:
Congenital Anomaly, Duplication Cyst, Jejunal Cyst, GastrointestinalAbstract
Gastrointestinal duplication cysts are a group of rare congenital anomalies with incidence of 1 in 4500 births. They are encountered mainly during first 2 years of life or antenatally. Here we report a case of non-communicating duplication cyst of jejunum in a 29 days old infant who presented with complaints of bilious vomiting. Most of the cases are associated with some other congenital anomaly. Completely isolated jejunal duplication cyst is rare. This case is presented to create an awareness of this rare entity which can occur as different presentations causing significant morbidity and even mortality if timely management is not provided.
