Duplications of the alimentary tract (ATD) are rare congenital anomalies often found early in life. They may occur anywhere in the intestinal tract but the ileum is the most frequently affected site. Clinical presentation of ATD in adults is variable and because these lesions occur so infrequently they are rarely suspected. In the present report we describe a case of ileal duplication in a 61-year-old patient with Crohn's disease. Despite various radiological investigations and medical consultations, the diagnosis was only made on the surgical specimen.
消化道重复畸形(ATD)是一种罕见的先天性畸形,通常在生命早期被发现。它们可能发生在肠道的任何部位,但回肠是最常受影响的部位。成人 ATD 的临床表现多种多样,由于这些病变很少见,因此很少被怀疑。在本报告中,我们描述了一例 61 岁克罗恩病患者的回肠重复畸形病例。尽管进行了各种影像学检查和医学咨询,但仅在手术标本上作出了诊断。
