Gastric Duplication Cyst with Multiple Ectopic Pancreatic Tissues: A Case Report and Review of Literature

A gastric duplication cyst (GDC) is a type of enteric duplication cyst. It can co‑exist with an ectopic tissue. This was a female toddlerwith a GDC at the greater curvature. An abdominal ultrasound and a contrast‑enhanced computed tomogram suggested the cyst. Shehad laparotomy, complete cyst and partial gastric excision with the removal of extragastric pancreatic tissue. The histology reportcame out as a cyst with associated intracystic and an extracystic pancreatic tissue. She made a clinical improvement. GDC can beassociated with both intracystic and extracystic ectopic pancreatic tissues. This should be kept in mind when choosing the modalityof treatment.
