title: Gastric duplication cysts as a rare cause of haematemesis: diagnostic challenges in two children.
abstract: Gastric duplication cysts are rare congenital alimentary tract anomalies. We describe the importance of imaging in two children with haematemesis due to gastric duplication cysts. We emphasize the necessity for a high clinical index of suspicion for early diagnosis.
