“…15 However, the duplication cyst often shares the muscle layer with the adjoining native intestinal tract as in our patient; therefore, incomplete cyst excision with complete mucosal stripping of the remaining structure must be carried out to avoid damaging the bowel. 1 This procedure may not always be possible because of the close relationship of the cyst to the pancreatic ductal or the biliary system, 6,11,16 and when a duplication cyst is accompanied by complications, it is difficult to use conventional procedures.…”

Successful Resection of an Infected Duodenal Duplication Cyst After Percutaneous Cyst Drainage: Report of a Case

et al. 2005

We report a case of a duodenal duplication cyst complicated by infection. An 8-year-old boy was brought to our hospital with severe abdominal pain and a fever of 39.8 degrees C. He had a 5-year history of occasional abdominal pain with vomiting. On examination, a cystic mass was felt under the liver. We performed percutaneous drainage of the cyst under a suspected diagnosis of a choledochal cyst complicated by acute biliary infection. A contrast study through the drainage tube and surgical exploration revealed a duodenal duplication cyst communicating with the second part of the duodenum. The patient had an uneventful recovery and remains well 5 years after surgery. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first documented case of an infected duodenal duplication cyst successfully treated by resection after percutaneous drainage.
