Abstract
Intestinal duplications are congenital anomalies that may occur throughout the gastrointe-stinal tract with an incidence of 1/4500 live births. The duplications are often located on the mesenteric side of the bowel and can either be cystic or tubular. Therefore, they most often appear as mesenteric cysts on radiology imaging. Most intestinal duplications are diagnosed within the first two years of life, either as accidental findings or they present as abdominal pain and intestinal obstruction. Surgically treated intestinal duplications have a good prognosis.
