Gastrointestinal duplications are commonly seen in children involving the esophagus in about 20% of all cases. However, Esophageal duplication cysts are a rare cause of dysphagia in adults. We report a case of oesophageal duplication cysts in adult. This case report is presented mainly to describe that these predominantly congenital lesions may be symptomatic in adults and if so, must be treated expediously by surgical resection to prevent further complications.
