Abstract
|
|
|
Meckel¡¯s diverticulum is an uncommon cause of acute abdominal pain and small bowel obstruction in adults. We present a case of a 28-yr-old man with acute pain for whom the diagnosis of Meckel¡¯s diverticulum was not suspected until exploratory laparotomy was performed. The procedure revealed a huge gangrenous Meckel¡¯s diverticum that was torsioned, and it gave rise to ileal obstruction. (J Korean Surg Soc 2006;70:399-401)
