Reviewer’s report
Title: 
Ectopic pancreas 
appearing as a giant gastric cyst mimicking gastric
lymphangioma: a case report and a brief review
Version: 
0 
Date: 
29 Jun 2020
Reviewer's report:
The authors reported a rare case of ectopic pancreas with serous cyst adenoma in
the stomach. 
The most important problem in this article is the diagnosis of serous
cystadenoma in the ectopic pancreas was correct or not. 
The authors must present the convinced histopathological figures of serous
cystadenoma in the ectopic pancreas. 
Moreover, the authors must describe the clinicopathological features of the
secondary tumor arising from ectopic pancreas in the stomach.
