Intestinal duplication is a rare congenital anomaly. It appears through out entire gastrointestinal tract, specially in the ileum. Gastric duplication cyst in adults is extremely rare. Diagnosis is often missed, often established at operation. Preoperative diagnosis may be suspected on CT or MRI with contrast given oraly as well as on EUS. Management of symptomatic gastric duplications is surgical. Recommended management is complete exscision of the duplication without major violation of the gastric lumen. In most cases giant cyst does not allow smaller resection but partial gastrectomy. In this report a rare case of gastric duplicatione cyst of the proximal stomach is presented. Diagnostic finding and surgical therapy are discussed.
