title: Congenital gastric anomalies.
abstract: A review with a classification of congenital defects involving the stomach is presented. Owing to the fact that in certain lesions there are so few case reports available for study, the etiology and true nature of these defects remains unknown. It is incumbent upon the surgical community to continue to document congenital anomalies of the stomach and report them accordingly.
