متن کاملA jejunoileal duplication diagnosed by Tc-99m pertechnetate abdominal scintigraphy.
Alimentary tract duplications are uncommon congenital anomalies. Although most are symptomatic by the age of 2 years, some remain asymptomatic until adulthood. In one third of all cases, heterotopic gastric mucosa lines the wall of dupli cation, and may cause peptic ulceration, gastrointestinal bleed ing, fistulization or perforation.
