Abstrakt: | Introduction: and importance: Duplications, which rare anomalies of the gastroin-testinal tract, may be located in any part of the gastro-intestinal system from the oral cavity to the anus. The aim of this paper is to present and discuss a case of an asymptomatic jejunal duplication cyst associated with adhesive small bowel obstruction in an elderly lady. Case Presentation: A 70-year-old female, presented to the emergency room with a history of recurrent abdominal, non-bilious vomiting, and abdominal distension for 5 days with no passage of stool and flatus for 3 days. Abdominal Computed tomography scan showed dilated fluid-filled small bowel loops with abrupt transition to collapsed small bowel associated with a focal kink and narrowing of the lumen. The patient was rushed for emergency laparotomy for diagnosis of adhesive small bowel obstruction. To our surprise, jejunal duplication cysts were found. Clinical Discussion: the intestinal duplication cysts are rare congenital anomalies. The clinical presentation is variable and depends on the site and the related complications. Surgical resection is deemed appropriate management due to known complications like obstruction, hemorrhage, perforation, and malignant degeneration. Conclusion: It's important to include intestinal duplication in the differential diagnosis of acute abdomen. Competing Interests: The authors declare having no conflicts of interest for this article.
