Abstract :

 We report   an  unusual  case of  a  9 year  old  boy  who  presented  with  a   posterior  pharyngeal  wall lesion which  on excision  biopsy  was diagnosed  as  oropharyngeal  gastric  choristoma. Gastric  choristoma  in  the  pharynx  is  extremely rare and   only  a few  cases  have  been  reported   so  far.

Summary:

Oropharyngeal  gastric choristoma  presenting  with  features  of  obstruction  in  a  child is   unusual and  necessitates  surgical  excision.
