Abstract(s)
We present a case report of a child with several crises of
upper abdominal pain and vomiting for two years, resolved with
metoclopramide and butilscopulamine suggesting upper digestive
intermittent obstruction. She is symptoms free between theses
episodes. The upper digestive endoscopy showed an aspect
suggestive of submucosal lesion or extrinsic compression in the
second portion of the duodenum.
The abdominal CT Scan showed am anomalous right
kidney with marked mobility dilation of the secretory tree that
was the cause of duodenal compression. After urological surgery
(pieloplasty and kidney fixation) the patient was followed during
two years without any symptoms.
