Gastric duplication cyst in an adult: case report.
Duplication cysts of the stomach are uncommon findings in adult patients and diagnosis is often overlooked. Presenting symptoms are often non-specific, but complications, including chronic infections, ruptures or carcinoma arising in the cyst, are rare. We report a case of a non-communicating cyst of the stomach in a 67-year-old man.
