Contribution
The study adds two new pediatric cases and provides a systematic review of this extremely rare congenital anomaly.
Findings
Intrapancreatic gastric duplication is a rare condition with variable symptoms and complex management.
The condition should be considered in the differential diagnosis of pancreatitis and abdominal masses in children.
Systematic review and case reports highlight the challenges in diagnosing and treating this anomaly.
Abstract
Duplications of the gastrointestinal tract are congenital anomalies characterized by a heterogeneous clinical presentation and challenging diagnostic and therapeutic processes. A systematic review was conducted on intrapancreatic gastric duplications in the pediatric population, and we present two clinical cases of patients with this condition. Intrapancreatic gastric duplication is an extremely rare congenital anomaly with variable clinical manifestations and complex management. However, it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of pancreatitis and abdominal masses in children.
