Abstract

Abstract Meckel’s diverticulum (MD) is the most common congenital abnormality of the gastrointestinal tract resulted from incomplete closure of the omphalomesenteric tube between 5th-7th intrauterine week. The incidence of MD is reported to be around 2% in the general population. MD is generally asymptomatic during life and symptoms are observed in around 1% of patients. MD is rarely found within hernial sac which is known as Littre hernia (LH). The incidence of this extremely rare condition, LH, is less than 1% in all MD cases. It is difficult to diagnose LH preoperatively. A 63 years old male patient applied to our hospital with the complaints of swelling in both of his inguinal regions for the last six months. In the right hernia sac of the patient, Meckel’s diverticulum was seen which became evident during surgery. In this study, this very rare MD case observed and treated in our patient and known in the literature as a Littre hernia is presented.
