Abstract:
Segmental dilatation of small intestine is a rare form of the congenital intestinal anomaly. Many other congenital anomalies have been reported in these patients, but to our knowledge, the association with colonic duplication has not been reported in literatures. Herein we report a case of segmental dilatation of distal ileum associated with colonic duplication. The main clinical and pathogenic aspects are discussed, and the literatures were reviewed.
