Sumario:Meckel's diverticulum is a remnant of the omphalomesenteric channel. Diverticulum may result in perforation, inflammation an even in occlusion. We here report the case of a 30-year old man, hospitalized and treated for bowel obstruction at the university clinics of Lubumbashi. Intraoperative findings showed small bowel volvulus due to Meckel's diverticulum associated with intestinal necrosis. Patient's outcome was favorable after surgery.
