Abstract:
Meckel diverticulum is the most common congenital abnormality of the small intestine. The condition occasionally involves invagination of the bowel lumen, leading to intussusception. We report a case in which intussusception secondary to an inverted Meckel diverticulum, together with an ectopic pancreas, occurred in an adult, and describe the associated radiologic, clinical and pathologic findings.
