Abstract
Gastric duplication cysts are uncommon congenital anomalies and are rarely diagnosed in adults. We present a unique case of a communicating type gastric duplication in a young woman with the multimodality imaging findings including barium examination, CT, and endoscopy. The morphological criteria for diagnosis of duplication cyst suggested pathogenetic mechanisms for its formation as well as clinical presentation. Associated pathologies are reviewed.
