[Gastric duplications. A case report (author's transl)]

The authors report an analysis of 154 true gastric duplications published up to now, and a personal case. This malformation occurs exceptionally and is generally discovered during the first year of life. Diagnosis is rarely performed before laparotomy, clinic signs being various. They insist on investigation by barium enema and fibroscopy. They try to oppose tubular to cystic forms, according to a different embryogenesis. Surgical treatment is specific to each case.
