Intestinal intussusception in an adults due to Meckel’s diverticulum: A case report

İnverte olmuş Meckel divertükülüne bağlı intussusepsiyonlar nadir durumlardır. İleoileal intussepsiyonlarda inverte olmuş Meckel divertikülüne bağlı intestinal obstrüksyon gelişmiş 83 yaşında bir erkek hastayı sunmaktayız. Meckel divertikülü intussusepsiyonlar, akut obstrüksiyona bağlı ileal strangülasyona neden olabilir. Bundan dolayı gereksiz bağırsak rezeksiyonundan kaçınmak için erken tanı konulmalıdır.

Erişkinlerde Meckel divertikülüne bağlı intestinal intussusepsiyon : Olgu sunumu

Intussusceptions due to an inverted Meckel’s diverticulum are considered as a rare condition. We present a case of 83 year-old male with intestinal obstruction due to an inverted Meckel’s divertuculum at the base of ileoileal intussusceptions. Ileal strangulation may occur due to intussusception of a Meckel’s diverticulum. Hence the clinician should be aware of this possibility and diagnose more quickly to avoid unnecessary bowel resection.
