ABSTRACT
Intestinal duplications are congenital malformations with an incidence of 1 in 4,500-5,000
births, 50% are jejuno-ileal. It is associated with obstruction or intussusception, volvulus,
intestinal bleeding or perforation. We present the case of a child of 1 year 6 months in
the pediatric service due to heart failure, arterial hypertension and pneumonia, evolution,
abdominal pain and evacuations in currant jelly. Ultrasound is requested, which reports
intestinal intussusception and meckel diverticulum. Exploratory laparotomy is performed
and intestinal resection is practiced. The piece is sent to pathology, which reports communicating
tubular intestinal duplication. The objective of presenting this case is the low prevalence
of this pathology and the diagnostic difficulty, both clinical and by imaging.
