Abstract

Calcification of intestinal duplications is rare, and it is most uncommon in duodenal duplications. In this report, two cases illustrate distinct forms of calcification associated with duodenal duplication cysts. Each type may be confused with calcifications in other benign or malignant lesions. Calcified duodenal duplication cysts should be considered when investigating spherical upper abdominal calcifications.
