Torsion of the whole ileum and hemorrhagic necrosis because of a giant Meckel’s diverticulum in a 9-month-old child

Intestinal ischemia caused by torsion of a freely hanging Meckel’s diverticulum (MD) resulting in the need for resection is an uncommon complication. We present an extraordinary case of a 9-month-old male with acute abdominal symptoms because of intestinal ischemia and necrosis that necessitated res...

description Intestinal ischemia caused by torsion of a freely hanging Meckel’s diverticulum (MD) resulting in the need for resection is an uncommon complication. We present an extraordinary case of a 9-month-old male with acute abdominal symptoms because of intestinal ischemia and necrosis that necessitated resection of the entire ileum. This was caused by torsion around a particularly large MD.
