Abstract

Concurrence of duodenal atresia and gastric duplication cyst is extremely rare entity. We report a 6-day-old female neonate who presented with neonatal intestinal obstruction. X-ray abdomen showed double bubble sign. At laparotomy, a huge cystic structure attached to greater curvature of the stomach along with duodenal atresia of second part of duodenum was found. The cystic structure was excised and duodeno-duodenostomy performed. Histopathology report confirmed it gastric duplication cyst.

Keywords: Duodenal atresia; Gastric duplication; Neonate.
