A member asked:
How are cysts found in the small intestine treated?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cysts in the: small intestine are uncommon. Enteric duplication cysts, which are congenital anomalies, can occur anywhere along the GI tract. Usually these are asymptomatic, incidental findings on imaging studies and require no treatment. If they cause problems due to obstruction they can be surgically removed.
