Abstract

Abstract: Foregut duplication cysts presents rarely in adults. Rarely, they can have an intraluminal communication. Traditionally, these cysts are excised via open surgical approaches. This video case describes the Thoraco-laparoscopic management of a 34-year old female patient who was diagnosed with foregut duplication cyst with a pyloro-duodenal communication. Successful excision of the foregut duplication cyst was achieved, through minimally invasive technique. Postoperatively, a right-sided pleural collection resulted, which was successfully managed with image-guided drainage. She is currently alive and asymptomatic at 1-year follow-up. Minimally invasive surgery is feasible and safe in the management of foregut duplication cysts with luminal communication.
