Abstract

and is incidentally detected during laparotomy/laparoscopy. Enterolith formation within Meckel's diverticulum is even rarer. Herein, we present the diagnosis and management of a 50-year old patient with Meckel's diverticulum enterolith and discuss this rare condition based on the literature.

Özet

Meckel divertikülü genel popülasyonun %1-3'ünde görülür, sıklıkla asemptomatiktir ve genellikle laparotomi/laparoskopide tesadüfen saptanır. Meckel divertikülünde taş oluşumu ise çok daha nadirdir. Burada acil servise karın ağrısı şikayetiyle başvuran ve Meckel divertikülünde taş saptanarak ameliyat edilen hastayı literatür eşliğinde tartışmayı amaçladık.
