This case of an enteric cyst is presented, first because of its extreme rarity, and second for the many interesting theories of development that can be followed from the embryologic state to the pathologic culmination.
Summary An enterogenous cyst of the duodenum in a four-week-old baby was treated successfully by gastrojejunostomy. The only other successfully treated case reported in the literature was that of a gril operated on at the age of fifteen years. Altogether eight cases have been described, five of these occurring in females and one in a male. In two cases the sex was not recorded. The clinical manifestations are usually those of pyloric obstruction.
