Uncommon Presentation of Gastric Duplication Cyst with Left-Sided Portal Hypertension: A Case Report and Literature Review. Diagnostics (Basel) 2024; 14:675. [PMID: 38611587 PMCID: PMC11011661 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics14070675] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2024] [Revised: 03/14/2024] [Accepted: 03/21/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Gastric duplication cysts (GDCs) in adults are exceedingly rare, with only a few documented cases in medical literature. The spectrum of clinical presentations varies widely, ranging from asymptomatic to severe symptoms such as hematemesis, vomiting or abdominal pain. Among the less common complications associated with GDCs, segmental portal hypertension is a notable rarity. We present a compelling case report of a patient exhibiting signs of segmental portal hypertension, where ultrasound and echo-endoscopy revealed a sizable gastric duplication cyst as the underlying etiology. Recognizing the scarcity of literature on GDCs in adult patients, we conducted a thorough review to underscore the diagnostic significance of ultrasonography and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) in accurately identifying these congenital anomalies. This case report and comprehensive literature review emphasize the pivotal role of EUS and abdominal ultrasound in achieving an accurate diagnosis of GDCs. By shedding light on the diagnostic and therapeutic intricacies, we aim to raise awareness among clinicians regarding this rare pathology and the importance of multimodal imaging approaches for optimal patient management.

A Multi-Centric Comparative Study Between Endoscopy-Assisted Laparoscopic Surgery (EALS) vs Laparoscopic Surgery for the Treatment of Gastric Duplication Cysts in Children.

Abstract
Purpose To compare and analyze the therapeutic effects of endoscopy-assisted laparoscopic surgery (EALS) and laparoscopic surgery (LS) in the treatment of gastric duplication cysts (GDCs). Patients and Methods We reviewed the clinical data of children with GDCs who underwent surgical treatment at Hubei Maternal and Child Health Hospital, Yijishan Hospital of Wannan Medical College, and Qingdao Women and Children's Medical Center from September 2014 to November 2022. Results The study comprised 29 children with GDCs, including 14 in the EALS group and 15 in the LS group. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of age, sex, weight, and cyst size characteristics. There was a significant difference between the two groups in terms of average surgical time (P>0.05), which was 1.100 ± 0.833 hours in the EALS group and 1.933 ± 0.159 hours in the LS group. There was a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05) in average intraoperative blood loss, which was 7.93 ± 3.81 milliliters in the EALS group and 11.80 ± 2.72 milliliters in the LS group. There was a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05) in average postoperative fasting time, which was 73.79 ± 8.36 hours in the EALS group and 114.1 ± 9.24 hours in the LS group. There was a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05) in average postoperative hospital stay, which was 10.21 ± 4.25 days in the EALS group and 14.47 ± 4.36 days in the LS group. Conclusion EALS technology can not only shorten surgical time, accurately locate GDCs, reduce injuries, and decrease the probability of complications but also achieve treatment goals safely and reliably.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal duplications can be found in all parts of the gastrointestinal tract. Duplications of the stomach comprise 2-8% of all duplications and are mostly diagnosed during the first year of life. We present a case of a gastric duplication cyst in a 29-year-old female, presenting with epigastric pain and vomiting. Preoperative diagnosis was assumed to be pyloric stenosis. Intraoperatively, a large mass that was attached to the greater curvature was found. Histopathology results were consistent with gastric duplication cyst.

Abstract
Gastric duplication cyst (GDC) with a pseudostratified columnar ciliated epithelial (PCCE) is a congenital rare cystic neoplasm, which is often difficult to distinguish from other entities by imaging techniques, and as a consequence it may be wrongly overtreated. We herein report a case of a 52-year-old female incidentally found to have an abdominal mass by ultrasonography and computed tomography. Additionally, endoscopic ultrasonography and fluid analysis were consistent with a pancreatic mucinous cystic neoplasm with a markedly elevated fluid amylase, carcinoembryonic antigen, and carbohydrate antigen 19-9. Then, laparoscopic resection of the cyst originating from the stomach and wedge gastrectomy were performed. Final pathology revealed a GDC with PCCE. In addition, we also performed a literature review of 31 reports of GDC with PCCE. Although rare, GDC lined by PCCE should be included in the differential diagnosis of pancreatic cystic neoplasms or a gastric wall mass.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastric duplication cysts (GDCs) are extremely uncommon lesions and the definitive diagnosis of GDCs is challenging for gastrointestinal specialists. It is important that a differential diagnosis is performed to rule out the possibility of other diseases, mainly malignancies with a cystic component. Despite the use of multiple diagnostic modalities including endoscopy, the preoperative diagnosis of GDCs is challenging.
CASE SUMMARY A 53-year-old female patient with a GDC was confirmed by positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) instead of more conventional procedures such as endoscopic ultrasonography-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA). We propose that 18F-FDG-PET/CT has higher accuracy than EUS-FNA and may be an effective technique for the characterization of duplication cysts.
CONCLUSION Preoperative diagnosis of GDCs in adults is difficult largely due to their rarity and the absence of characteristic findings. In addition, few endoscopists include GDCs in the differential diagnosis when they encounter a lesion with cystic characteristics. 18F-FDG-PET/CT with additional imaging data, may complement EUS-FNA in the diagnosis of GDCs.

Abstract
RATIONALE Gastric duplication cyst is an anomaly that primarily occurs to children. Apart from the conventional use of surgical resection, few cases using endoscopic treatment have been reported. PATIENT CONCERNS A 5-month-old female infant was hospitalized with the chief complaint of gastric cyst. No significant abnormalities were identified by physical examination. INTERVENTIONS Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) was performed successfully for the infant and the duration was less than 20 minutes. The patient showed no postoperative complications. OUTCOMES At 4 months during the follow-up, upper endoscopy revealed a small scar at the previous site of the lesion and no recurrence. LESSONS According to the results of PUBMED review, she was the youngest with gastric duplication cyst removed with ESD. The less invasive ESD should be considered an effective therapeutic option to remove gastric duplication cyst in children.
