    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    A rare case of acquired double pylorus, resulting from peptic ulcer disease, was documented. This condition involved two openings in the pylorus, likely caused by an ulcer penetrating into the duodenum, creating a fistula.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Gastrointestinal Surgery
    • Medical Case Reports

    Background:

    • Peptic ulcer disease (PUD) is a common gastrointestinal condition.
    • Complications of PUD can include penetration and fistula formation.
    • Acquired anatomical abnormalities of the pylorus are infrequently reported.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a unique case of acquired double pylorus.
    • To illustrate the endoscopic findings associated with this rare condition.
    • To discuss the likely etiology and pathophysiology.

    Main Methods:

    • Case report detailing a patient with symptoms suggestive of PUD.
    • Diagnostic confirmation using fiberoptic gastroscopy.
    • Detailed description of endoscopic findings in the gastric antrum and pylorus.

    Main Results:

    • Endoscopy revealed a scarred gastric antrum and a shallow prepyloric ulcer.
    • The pylorus presented as two distinct large openings separated by a septum.
    • The duodenum was successfully visualized through both openings, indicating a potential fistula.

    Conclusions:

    • The observed anatomical configuration is consistent with an acquired double pylorus.
    • This condition is likely a sequela of a penetrating prepyloric peptic ulcer.
    • Pyloroduodenal fistula represents a rare but significant complication of peptic ulcer disease.
