Introduction. Stomach doubling is one of the rarest types of gastrointestinal doubling in the system of pathology of abdominal organs in children. Stomach doubling occurs in 4–8% of cases of gastrointestinal doubling. To a greater extent, it is diagnosed in girls. The rarest localization of doubling is a small curvature of the stomach — 7%.The purpose of the study: to present the informative value of radiation methods in the diagnosis of gastric doubling by the example of a clinical case.Material and methods. The work is based on the analysis of clinical data, instrumental, histological studies performed in a children’s hospital in St. Petersburg.Results: An 8-year-old patient was hospitalized for further examination for cystic formation of the abdominal cavity, detected antenatally at 36 weeks of gestation. At the age of 2 years, MSCT angiography of the abdominal cavity was performed and a differential series between a liver cyst and a doubling of the stomach was exposed. At the control ultrasound, further negative dynamics in size. An MRI revealed that the picture most likely corresponds to a cystic doubling of the stomach. Indications for surgical treatment are exposed. Histologically confirmed variant of stomach doubling.Conclusion. The multimodal approach allows timely diagnosis of the presented pathology, differential diagnosis of gastric doubling with rare localization and determination of indications for surgical treatment.

Introduction. Interstitial lung diseases in newborns associated with diffuse pulmonary developmental disorders are a difficult to detect, as they are rare, formed at the early stages of embryonic development, clinically manifested in the first hours of life as severe respiratory distress syndrome in newborns. The aim. To demonstrate the role of radiation research methods and the difficulties of differential diagnosis of rare forms of interstitial lung diseases associated with diffuse impaired lung development. Materials and methods. Clinical cases of congenital alveolar dysplasia and alveolar-capillary dysplasia with an abnormal location of the pulmonary veins are described in detail, the radiological data, confirmed by the histological data, are presented. Results. Specific changes in the lungs in ILD of newborns associated with a diffuse disorder of lung development, according to X-ray data in the first day of life, are not determined, however, a progressive negative trend has been noted. The lungs computed tomography allows a detailed diagnosis of structural changes in the lung parenchyma, their severity and prevalence. Issues of differential diagnosis of diffuse disorders of lung development in newborns are discussed; the obtained results correlate with the published data. Conclusions. Histological examination is the “gold standard” in the diagnosis of interstitial lung diseases associated with diffuse lung developmental disorders in newborns, but is most often performed at autopsy. The role of radiological methods in the algorithmic approach of diagnostics is increasing due to the accumulated data, the improvement in the quality of detection and recognition of rare variants of interstitial lung diseases in newborns according to CT of the chest organs.
