Abstract
A duodenal duplication cyst containing enteroliths in an adult patient is presented. The preoperative diagnosis was established by computed tomographic (CT) and ultrasound (US) examinations. To the best of our knowledge this is the first description of enteroliths in a duodenal duplication cyst.
