消化道重复畸形是一种罕见的先天性畸形，常在生命早期发现。它们可能发生在肠道的任何地方，但回肠是最常见的受影响部位。成人ATD的临床表现是可变的，因为这些病变很少发生，所以很少被怀疑。在本报告中，我们描述了一例回肠重复在61岁的克罗恩病患者。尽管进行了各种放射学检查和医疗咨询，但仅根据手术标本作出了诊断。(C)2011年百世登。All rights reserved.
Duplications of the alimentary tract (ATD) are rare congenital anomalies often found early in life. They may occur anywhere in the intestinal tract but the ileum is the most frequently affected site. Clinical presentation of ATD in adults is variable and because these lesions occur so infrequently they are rarely suspected. In the present report we describe a case of ileal duplication in a 61-year-old patient with Crohn's disease. Despite various radiological investigations and medical consultations, the diagnosis was only made on the surgical specimen. (C) 2011 Baishideng. All rights reserved.
