A rare case of a congenital pancreatic duplication cyst in an infant complicated by an upper GI bleed, pancreatitis, cyst infection and gastric outlet obstruction.

ABSTRACT

Enteric duplication cysts are rare congenital entities most commonly found in the esophagus, ileum or colon but can be in remote locations such as the biliary tree, liver or pancreas. Pancreatic duplication cysts are very uncommon and usually present in adulthood with pancreatitis or abdominal pain. Here, we present a unique and complex case of an infant with a pancreatic duplication cyst initially presenting with an upper gastrointestinal bleed followed by pancreatitis, cyst infection and gastric outlet obstruction.
