“…Endoscopic ultrasound is another useful tool in the diagnosis of lesions deriving from the gastric wall and can distinguish their origin as follows: inner echogenic mucosal and outer hypoechoic muscle layers are typical of gastric duplications [9]. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is also used in order to rule out malignancy, however, its use remains controversial, as elevated levels of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and cancer antigen (CA) 19-9 have been found in samples of benign lesions [9,10]. The differential diagnosis includes gastrointestinal stromal tumors, neuroendocrine tumors, pancreatic heterotopia, pancreatic cystic lesions, and mesenteric cysts among others [9,[11][12][13].…”

Gastrointestinal duplications can be found in all parts of the gastrointestinal tract. Duplications of the stomach comprise 2-8% of all duplications and are mostly diagnosed during the first year of life. We present a case of a gastric duplication cyst in a 29-year-old female, presenting with epigastric pain and vomiting. Preoperative diagnosis was assumed to be pyloric stenosis. Intraoperatively, a large mass that was attached to the greater curvature was found. Histopathology results were consistent with gastric duplication cyst.

“…Duplication cysts of the alimentary tract are rare embryologic anomalies. The ileum and ileocecum were the most commonly affected, whereas gastric duplication cyst is highly uncommon with an incidence of 4–8% among all alimentary duplication cysts 1–3. Most gastric duplication cysts occur in the greater curvature of the stomach.…”

Gastric duplications are the least common gastrointestinal duplications, especially in adults. Duplication cyst with an accessory pancreatic lobe is extremely rare and is even more uncommon in the setting of polysplenia. No gastric duplication after partial gastrectomy has been reported. We present a 41-year-old male diagnosed with gastric duplications with an accessory pancreatic lobe and polysplenia. Another characteristic of this case is partial gastrectomy 20 years ago without the discovery of duplication cysts. The gastric duplications, accessory pancreatic lobe and accessory spleen were successfully resected.

“…Surgical resection is suggested for symptomatic GDC cases, but controversy surrounds asymptomatic ones. Some scholars also recommended surgery for asymptomatic cases due to the potential for neoplastic transformation [12,19]. Partial gastrectomy or cystectomy, whether through open surgery or laparoscopy, is often the preferred approach for managing patients with GDC [20].…”

Introduction: Gastric duplication cyst (GDC) is a rare congenital anomaly of the gastrointestinal tract. Though GDC is often misdiagnosed, misidentification as an adrenal cyst has rarely been reported. Herein, we report a case of GDC in a young female mimicking an adrenal cyst. Case Presentation: A 17-year-old female presented with chronic epigastric pain, nausea, and intermittent vomiting. Physical examinations revealed mild tenderness in the epigastric region. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed no abnormality. Ultrasound, contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan, and MRI of the abdomen and pelvis showed an oval-shaped left adrenal cystic lesion measuring 33 × 26 mm. Preoperative blood investigations and hormonal assessments were normal. Laparoscopy showed that the cyst originated from the greater curvature of the stomach. The left adrenal gland was normal. After an intraoperative consultation with a gastrointestinal surgeon, a wedge resection of the cyst was performed. Histopathology confirmed the gastric duplication cyst. Conclusion: GDCs are rare congenital malformations that may become symptomatic during adulthood. They can mimic adrenal cysts and lead to misdiagnosis.
