Abstract

The article discusses the clinical cases of four patients who developed completely isolated enteric duplication cysts (CIDC). Enteric duplication cysts are rare congenital abnormalities attached to a portion of the gastrointestinal tract and are located on the mesenteric site of the digestive tract. They are diagnosed through computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. The cases presented here involve children who were diagnosed with CIDC associated with bowel malformation, such as ileal atresia, Mekel's diverticulum and enteric duplication. The treatment administered to each patient is described, along with their clinical outcomes.
