Core Tip
Core tip: We are presenting a rare case of a duplication cyst in an adult complaining of recurrent upper left abdominal pain and fullness. An abdominal ultrasound and a contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan demonstrated a large cystic lesion along the greater curvature of the stomach with scattered calcification and no significant enhancement was observed. A nutrient vessel arising from the stomach was noted in the cyst wall. Laparoscopic resection of the gastric mass and partial gastrectomy were performed. The patient recovered without any complications.
