摘要
An intestinal duplication cyst is a very rare congenital anomaly, with symptoms including abdominal pain, abdominal distention, intestinal bleeding, and hematochezia. Hematochezia can be caused by ectopic gastric mucosa, although there are other causes of infantile hematochezia; hence, an intestinal duplication cyst can be misdiagnosed as bowel intussusception or Meckel＇s diverticulum. Here, a case of an intestinal duplication cyst that was misdiagnosed as Meckel＇s diverticulum is reported.
