title: The prenatal sonographic appearance of enteric duplication cysts.
abstract: Enteric duplication cysts are rare lesions, and relatively few cases have been diagnosed prenatally. We report two cases with a distinctive presentation. One, a duplication of the antrum of the stomach, was adjacent to an extralobar pulmonary sequestration. The other, a duodenal duplication, appeared as a thick-walled right lower quadrant cyst. We observed distinct peristalsis in this cyst, a finding that helped us make a firm diagnosis of enteric duplication.
