Congenital duodenal webs are rare in adults and can lead to various symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and postprandial fullness. The treatment for this disease is mostly surgical. Endoscopic treatment techniques have been developed and attempted for this disease. Endoscopic radial incision and cutting (RIC) techniques are reportedly very effective in benign anastomotic stricture. This case report highlights the effectiveness and safety of endoscopic RIC as a minimally invasive treatment for adult congenital duodenal webs.
