Motility Disorder, Meckel's Diverticulum and Mass in a Toddler Girl-Mere Coincidence or Causation Link
Abstract
Abstract We present unique and an interesting case of a toddler girl who had all three in one lesion with a known case of hypoganglionosis. Patient presented with recurrent right sided abdominal colicky pain, vomiting and a right lower abdominal mass. During abdominal ultrasound, an ileoileal intussusception was found. Patient underwent minimal invasive approach using laparoscopy at which the ileoileal intussusception was reduced and an inverted Meckel’s diverticulum with ectopic mucosal nodule was discovered. Limited segmental ileal resection containing diverticulum and primary anastomosis resulted in resolution with good recovery.
