Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics,diagnosis,and treatment of gastric duplication(GD)in children.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 46 pediatric patients with GD treated at our hospital from January 2008 to January 2025.The evaluated parameters included age,gender,symptoms,comorbidities,imaging data,surgical process,postoperative treatment and follow-up situation.Analyze the clinical characteristics of GD.Results Forty-four cases were cystic structures,and 2 cases were sinus tracts or tubular structures respectively.The most common site was the cardia/fundus area(20 cases).Seventeen cases were asymptomatic(7 detected during prenatal screening and 10 identified incidentally).The most common associated anomalies were inguinal hernia(4 cases),pulmonary airway malformation(3 cases),pulmonary sequestration(3 cases),and hiatal hernia(3 cases).All 46 patients underwent ultrasound examination,with an accuracy of 97.8％.Upper gastrointestinal contrast studies were performed in 16 cases and computed tomography(CT)was conducted in 34 patients.Perforation occurred in 7 cases.Surgical approaches included laparoscopy(35 cases,with 5 conversions to open surgery),open surgery(9 cases),robotic surgery(1 case),transthoracic surgery(1 case).Operative time ranged from 50 to 250 minutes(median:105 minutes).Postoperative pathology identified pancreatic heterotopia in 6 cases.Time to resume oral intake ranged from 1 to 17 days(median:4 days),and postoperative hospital stay lasted 3-21 days(median:7 days).During follow-up,one patient was readmitted for adhesive intestinal obstruction and managed conservatively,with no other significant complications reported.Conclusion Pediatric GD is a rare congenital anomaly,typically presenting as non-communicating cystic lesions with nonspecific clinical manifestations.Ultrasonography is the primary diagnostic tool,with upper GI series,CT/MRI,and endoscopy as adjuncts.While prompt surgical intervention is indicated for symptomatic cases,those complicated by perforation/infection should undergo delayed elective resection ≥ 3 months following complete inflammatory resolution.Laparoscopic approach is the treatment of choice,while endoscopic intraoperative localization or endoscopic therapy may be considered for small intraluminal lesions.

Chronic Guillain-Barre syndrome, also known as chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy(CIDP), is an immune-mediated demyelinating peripheral neuropathy. This article analyzes the clinical data of a CIDP patient presenting primarily with limb numbness, pain, and weakness. Along with literature review, this study explores the differential diagnosis between CIDP and diabetic peripheral neuropathy in terms of the pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, laboratory tests, and treatment.
