Abstract
The authors report a rare case of a 2-year-old boy with gastric duplication cyst located in the stomach, presenting with vague abdominal pain, recurrent cough, hemoptysis and a lesion in the left lung reported as lung sequestration. The duplication cyst was attached to the diaphragm and lung by a narrow canal. The cyst was excised. Subsequent scans showed regression of the lung lesion. It is believed that this is the first case in the literature where hemoptysis was cured and the lung lesion regressed completely after excision of the duplication cyst of the stomach alone. Pulmonary resection was avoided thereby.
