Mediastinal enteric duplication cyst containing aberrant pancreas. Indian Journal of Pediatrics. 2002 Nov; 69(11): 961-2http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/80852OBJECTIVE: The purpose of the study is to report a unique association of clinical and pathological findings in a neonate. Foregut enteric duplication cysts--rare developmental anomalies that are associated with midline vertebral fusion anomalies. METHODS: We had a neonate with foregut duplication cyst who presented at birth with respiratory distress. The child also had associated communicating hydrocephalus. The patient underwent excision of the duplication cyst along with a ventriculo-peritoneal shunt. RESULT: The excised specimen revealed a duplication cyst lined by aberrant pancreatic tissue. CONCLUSION: The present case demonstrates histologically the presence of both pancreatic and gastric tissue.engChoristoma --complicationsHumansHydrocephalus --complicationsInfant, NewbornMaleMediastinal Cyst --complicationsPancreasCase Reports
