Figure

• 

  Fig. 1 Endoscopic findings. The duodenal bulb was narrowed and an ulcer with blurred margin (black arrowheads) was shown.

• 

  Fig. 2 CT findings. The stomach was distended and a cystic mass with thick wall (black arrowheads) was attached to the gastric antrum.

• 

  Fig. 3 Abdominal ultrasonography findings. A 2.3 cm sized protruding mass containing fluid and mucosa (white arrowheads) was noted at anteroinferior portion of the gastric antrum.

• 

  Fig. 4 Pathologic findings (H&E). (A) A gastric duplication cyst (×100). The wall had mucus producing glands internally (right lower part), and smooth muscle externally (left upper part). (B) An ectopic pancreas composed of the pancreatic ducts and acini was seen on the one side of the duplication cyst (×200).
