Popis: Gastric heterotopia is more frequently in small intestine, gall bladder, biliary tract, Meckel's diverticulum, colon and rectum, but it can be found in other locations. It is especially rare in oral cavity. We only find one case that concurs with cleft palate. We present the case of a neonate with gastric heterotopia and cleft palate in addition to other congenital malformations not related at first. We make a brief revision of literature, showing the pathogenesis of heterotopia and its possible association with the cleft palate.
