Meckel’s diverticulum is the most common congenital abnormality of the gastrointestinal tract. It results from incomplete obliteration of the vitelline duct during 5-7 weeks of embryonic development, leading to a true diverticulum on the antimesenteric border of the ileum. It occurs in approximately 2% of the population with a male-to-female ratio of 2:1, is located about 60 cm from the ileocaecal valve. It is usually asymptomatic or discovered incidentally during surgery performed for other reasons, however, 2% of patients develop a complication of Meckel’s diverticulum during their lifetime, which includes hemorrhage, intestinal obstruction and inflammation. Bowel obstruction can be caused by intussusception, volvulus, Littre’s hernia or, rarely, a mesodiverticular band of the diverticulum.

diverticulum is a rare gastrointestinal congenital anomaly that is difficult to diagnose and presents with anemia, abdominal pain, or intussusception [6]; was described originally by Guilhelmus Fabricius Hildanus in 1598. [5] A Meckel’s diverticulum is usually an asymptomatic condition, and many cases are incidentally discovered during a radiographic evaluation or during surgery performed for other reasons. [6] The diagnosis is usually made in childhood. Here, we report the case of a 44-year-old female with a volvulated Meckel’s diverticulum, causing a small bowel obstruction. The patient initiated with profuse diarrhea and vomiting bilious content; then started with abdominal distention and severe abdominal pain, becoming an intestinal obstruction. Later, the patient was surgically intervened; finding a Meckel’s diverticulum volvulated in the intraoperative that was causing the obstruction. Meckel&#39;s diverticulum is rarely diagnosed in adults.

ds2-5-body-sm">Meckel’s diverticulum (MD) is a congenital abnormality of the gastrointestinal tract resulting from incomplete obliteration of the vitellointestinal duct by 5th to 7th week of gestation. Incidence is 2% in the general population with a 2:1 male to female ratio. The various presentations of MD include gastrointestinal bleeding, intestinal obstruction, diverticulitis and intestinal perforation. Majority of the MD is asymptomatic however the potential risk of developing complication it&#39;s about 4-6%. Preoperative diagnosis of MD is challenging. We present 6 cases of MD managed at our centre over the course of 1 year. Two cases presented as intestinal obstruction secondary to mesodiverticular band from MD, one case with bleeding, two cases with intussusception and one case of meckel’s diverticulitis.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Meckel’s diverticulum and its plethoric presentation in paediatric surgery: a case series","attachmentId":75789946,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/63320130/Meckel_s_diverticulum_and_its_plethoric_presentation_in_paediatric_surgery_a_case_series","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/63320130/Meckel_s_diverticulum_and_its_plethoric_presentation_in_paediatric_surgery_a_case_series"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="8" data-entity-id="4872567" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/4872567/MECKELS_DIVERTICULUM_SIX_CASE_REPORTS_OUR_EXPERIENCE_AND_REVIEW_OF_LITERATURE">MECKEL'S DIVERTICULUM SIX CASE REPORTS OUR EXPERIENCE AND REVIEW OF LITERATURE</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="2902934" href="https://ijmrhs.academia.edu/editorijmrhs">editor ijmrhs</a></div><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"MECKEL'S DIVERTICULUM SIX CASE REPORTS OUR EXPERIENCE AND REVIEW OF LITERATURE","attachmentId":32147763,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/4872567/MECKELS_DIVERTICULUM_SIX_CASE_REPORTS_OUR_EXPERIENCE_AND_REVIEW_OF_LITERATURE","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/4872567/MECKELS_DIVERTICULUM_SIX_CASE_REPORTS_OUR_EXPERIENCE_AND_REVIEW_OF_LITERATURE"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="9" data-entity-id="43744100" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/43744100/Strangulated_Meckels_Diverticulum_Causing_Intestinal_Obstruction">Strangulated Meckel's Diverticulum Causing Intestinal Obstruction</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="153663531" href="https://independent.academia.edu/InternationalJournalofHealthSciencesandResearchIJHSR">International Journal of Health Sciences and Research (IJHSR)</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">https://www.ijhsr.org/IJHSR_Vol.8_Issue.6_June2018/IJHSR_Abstract.050.html, 2018</p><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">Meckel's diverticulum is the most common congenital anomaly of the small intestine. It may remain completely asymptomatic. Common complications related to a Meckel's diverticulum include hemorrhage, intestinal obstruction, and inflammation. Small bowel obstruction can be due to intussusception, incarceration, adhesions, strictures, torsion. Herein, we discuss our experience in managing a 16 year old female who was diagnosed with small bowel obstruction due to mesodiverticular band which is a remnant of left vitelline artery which caused torsion and gangrene of entire Meckel's diverticulum.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Strangulated Meckel's Diverticulum Causing Intestinal Obstruction","attachmentId":64054888,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/43744100/Strangulated_Meckels_Diverticulum_Causing_Intestinal_Obstruction","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/43744100/Strangulated_Meckels_Diverticulum_Causing_Intestinal_Obstruction"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div></div></div><div class="ds-sticky-ctas--wrapper js-loswp-sticky-ctas hidden"><div class="ds-sticky-ctas--grid-container"><div class="ds-sticky-ctas--container"><button class="ds2-5-button js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"continue-reading-button--sticky-ctas","attachmentId":117793155,"attachmentType":"pdf","workUrl":null}">See full PDF</button><button class="ds2-5-button ds2-5-button--secondary js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"download-pdf-button--sticky-ctas","attachmentId":117793155,"attachmentType":"pdf","workUrl":null}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 20px" translate="no">download</span>Download PDF</button></div></div></div><div class="ds-below-fold--grid-container"><div class="ds-work--container js-loswp-embedded-document"><div class="attachment_preview" data-attachment="Attachment_117793155" style="display: none"><div class="js-scribd-document-container"><div class="scribd--document-loading js-scribd-document-loader" style="display: block;"><img alt="Loading..." src="//a.academia-assets.com/images/loaders/paper-load.gif" /><p>Loading Preview</p></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div class="scribd--no-preview-alert js-preview-unavailable"><p>Sorry, preview is currently unavailable.
