摘要
Gastric duplication is a congenital malformation occurring mostly in infants or childhood. It is rarely found in adults. Some are completely separate cystic lesions unconnected to the stomach, which makes them more difficult to diagnose in a clinical setting. Differential diagnoses of this separate form often include a pancreatic pseudocyst or pancreatic cystic tumor according to the anatomic location. Some associated anomalies have been documented in the literature, but these are rare. Herein, we report a case of gastric duplication at the splenic hilum of a young female adult with a clinical impression of endometriosis due to the coexistence of a fight ovarian cyst and image findings.
