Meckel's diverticulum causing acute intestinal obstruction: A case series.

ABSTRACT

Meckel's diverticulum (MD) is the most common congenital anomaly of the gastrointestinal tract. Most cases are asymptomatic and when symptomatic, preoperative diagnosis of MD is poor. Intestinal obstruction, Malena or hematochezia, and inflammation are major symptoms. We report three cases of 18-month, 2-year, and 9-year old male patients presenting with intestinal obstruction.
