Laparoscopic resection of cecal duplication cyst in a 28 years old male: a rare case report

Cecal duplication cysts in adults are exceedingly rare, representing less than 0.5% of gastrointestinal duplications. Diagnosis is challenging due to overlapping clinical and radiologic features with more common conditions. Histopathology remains the gold standard for confirmation. Complete surgical resection is the treatment of choice, both to relieve symptoms and to mitigate risks of complications, including malignant transformation.

Abstract

Cecal duplication cysts in adults are exceedingly rare, representing less than 0.5% of gastrointestinal duplications. Diagnosis is challenging due to overlapping clinical and radiologic features with more common conditions. Histopathology remains the gold standard for confirmation. Complete surgical resection is the treatment of choice, both to relieve symptoms and to mitigate risks of complications, including malignant transformation.
