“…GD can be cystic or tubular in shape and can be single or multiple. Cystic lesions attached to the greater curvature of the stomach and that are not connected with the gastric cavity are the most common ( 16 , 17 ). GD is often associated with other malformations, such as vertebral deformity and ectopic pancreas ( 18 ).…”

BackgroundTo investigate the clinical characteristics of gastric duplication (GD) in children.MethodsThe clinical data of 17 children with GD who were treated in our hospital from July 2015 to June 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 8 males and 9 females, aged from 2 months to 11 years. All children underwent laparoscopic GD resections and postoperative pathological diagnosis was GD. In addition, we searched and analyzed the literature on GD in children from 1 January 2011 to 31 December 2021 from the PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases.ResultsGastric duplication was more common in females, with the most common cystic type occurring in the greater curvature of the stomach. Vomiting is the most common clinical manifestation. Ultrasound is an effective method for the early screening of GD. In this study, one patient who had multiple GDs underwent laparoscopic cystectomy and mucosectomy, one patient was converted to open surgery, and all other children underwent laparoscopic cystectomies. The time to oral intake was 2.3 ± 1.0 days (range: 1–4 days), and the postoperative hospital stay was 5.7 ± 1.7 days (range: 2–9 days). All children were followed up for 6–77 months and had an uneventful recovery with the resolution of the preoperative symptoms.ConclusionGastric duplication in children lacks specific clinical manifestations, and the preoperative diagnosis rate is not high, so surgical exploration combined with pathological examination is often needed to make a clear diagnosis. Laparoscopic cystectomy can achieve good therapeutic results.

“…At the moment, in the literature, there are two types of gastric duplication cysts: one type lacks communication with the gastric cavity or the tubular digestive tract, while the other type does communicate with the gastric lumen. When symptomatic, this type of pathology can cause a wider range of symptoms, such as persistent abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting or even life-threatening hematemesis [1][2][3][4][5].…”

Gastric duplication cysts (GDCs) in adults are exceedingly rare, with only a few documented cases in medical literature. The spectrum of clinical presentations varies widely, ranging from asymptomatic to severe symptoms such as hematemesis, vomiting or abdominal pain. Among the less common complications associated with GDCs, segmental portal hypertension is a notable rarity. We present a compelling case report of a patient exhibiting signs of segmental portal hypertension, where ultrasound and echo-endoscopy revealed a sizable gastric duplication cyst as the underlying etiology. Recognizing the scarcity of literature on GDCs in adult patients, we conducted a thorough review to underscore the diagnostic significance of ultrasonography and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) in accurately identifying these congenital anomalies. This case report and comprehensive literature review emphasize the pivotal role of EUS and abdominal ultrasound in achieving an accurate diagnosis of GDCs. By shedding light on the diagnostic and therapeutic intricacies, we aim to raise awareness among clinicians regarding this rare pathology and the importance of multimodal imaging approaches for optimal patient management.
