Core Tip
Core tip: Colonic duplication is an uncommon congenital disease, and the manifestations vary greatly according to different types and locations of duplication. Most cases are diagnosed and treated before the age of 2 years. Due to non-specific manifestations and low incidence, it is rather a challenge to make an accurate diagnosis before surgery. Surgery should be considered as first-line treatment even though some patients are asymptomatic.
