Abstract

Congenital double pylorus is a rare anomaly in which two pyloric openings connect the antrum of the stomach to the duodenal bulb. We report an unusual case of congenital double pylorus in which one of the channels led to an intraluminal cystic duplication of the duodenal bulb. An embryologic relation between congenital double pylorus and antroduodenal duplications is suggested.
