title: Common bile duct perforation resulting from a gastric duplication cyst.
abstract: Gastric duplication cysts are a rare cause of abdominal masses in infants. Most children present with a gastric outlet obstruction or some vague abdominal complaints. We present an unusual case of a gastric duplication cyst that created a distal common bile duct obstruction which led to a proximal common bile duct perforation.
