Ectopic gastric mucosa in a polyp causing ileo-ileal intussusception: a case report of a three-month-old baby
1Department of Pediatric Surgery, Sapir Medical Center, Meir General Hospital, Kfar Saba, Israel.
Abstract:
Ectopic gastric mucosa in the small bowel not associated with Meckel's diverticulum, is rare. Most of the few cases found in the literature are symptomatic and complicated. We report a case of a three month-old baby, the youngest patient reported thus far. He had ectopic gastric mucosa in a polypoid lesion of the mid-ileum, which caused ileo-ileal intussusception.
