ABSTRACT

Meckel’s diverticulum is the most frequently observed congenital anomaly of the gastrointestinal tract. Meckel’s diverticulum which is incidentally diagnosed in adulthood, sometimes can present with life-threatening complications. In this article, Meckel’s diverticulum in a 27 years old adult male, occuring due to internal herniation of the small bowel and subsequent ileus is presented.
