  • Title: Intussusception due to a cecal duplication cyst: a rare cause of acute abdomen. Case report.
    Author: Corroppolo M, Zampieri N, Erculiani E, Cecchetto M, Camoglio FS.
    Journal: Pediatr Med Chir; 2007; 29(5):273-4. PubMed ID: 18402398.
    Abstract:
    Duplications of the alimentary tract are rare congenital anomalies. The ileum is the most common site, whereas rectal, duodenal, gastric and cecal duplications are extremely rare. Duplication cysts of the cecum, in a neonate, are even rarer, with only 19 cases reported in medical literature to date. We report a case of intestinal intussusception due to a cecal duplication cyst.
