Abstract

The association of intestinal duplication and intestinal atresia is very rare. A case of intestinal duplication associated with Type I and Type II intestinal atresias is reported, and the relevant literature pertaining to the causation of these lesions is discussed. To the best of our knowledge, this case seems to be the first report in Korean literatures.

Keywords: Intestinal duplication, Intestinal atresia

Figures and Tables

Fig. 1
The resected specimen shows a cystic duplication (thickest arrow) at the antimesenteric border of the jejunum, type II ileal atresia (thick arrow), and type 1 ileal atresia (thin arrow).

Fig. 2
(A) The muscle proper of the cystic duplication is partly shared with the subjacent small intestine (arrows). (B) The epithelium of the cystic duplication is lined by pyloric-type gastric mucosa with underlying muscle proper (H&E, ×50).
