Duplication cysts are an uncommon finding. Majority of these cases are found in the region of the midgut, and many have been reported in literature. However, there has been only one previous case of a midgut duplication cyst lined by respiratory epithelium. This is a rare pathology, of which very little is known about. The pathophysiology of these cases is also difficult to explain. We aim to present a case of a midgut duplication cyst in a paediatric patient, who had other abnormalities as well. We also aim to offer a hypothesis for this case.
重复囊肿是一种罕见的发现。这些病例大多数发生在中肠区域，文献中已有许多相关报道。然而，此前仅有一例中肠重复囊肿内衬呼吸道上皮的病例。这是一种罕见的病理学情况，对此了解甚少。这些病例的病理生理学也难以解释。我们旨在介绍一例患有其他异常情况的儿科患者的中肠重复囊肿病例。我们还旨在为该病例提供一种假设。
