- Enteric duplication cyst
-
Enteric duplication cysts, sometimes simply called duplication cysts, are rare cysts of the gastrointestinal tract.[1] They most frequently occur in the small intestine, particularly the ileum, but can occur anywhere along the gastrointestinal tract.[1]
The condition of having duplication cysts has been called intestinal duplication.[2]
