Gastric duplication presenting rectal bleeding. A clinical case supporting McLedtchie's theory.

This is a case of a 5-month-old girl with massive rectal bleeding caused by a gastric duplication. Cyst heterotopic pancreas and pancreatic duplication, an association not previously reported were present. The peculiar clinical presentation was due to cyst perforation that had subsequently eroded the transverse colon. Coexistent gastric containing heterotopic pancreas and pancreatic duplications were probably produced as traction diverticular by an embryonic entoectodermal adhesions.
