Abstract
An 18-year-old male presented with persistent vomiting and epigastric fullness of 8 months' duration. Barium examination revealed an abrupt cutoff at the third part of the duodenum. Duodenotomy revealed a web at the third part of the duodenum. Following web excision, the patient experienced marked symptomatic relief and remains well 6 months after surgery.
