Abstract:
Objective To explore the value of laparoscopic diagnosis and treatment for Meckel’s diverticulum in children. Methods Laparoscopic exploration was performed in 11 children with suspected intestinal Meckel’s diverticulum. In other 2 children, the diverticulum was encountered during laparoscopic appendectomy, and then the umbilical incision was prolonged to take out the corresponding intestine for resection. Results No conversions to laparotomy were required in all the 13 children. The operation time lasted 30~90 min (mean, 75 min). The children were discharged at 5~6 postoperative days without complications. Conclusions Laparoscopic diagnosis and treatment for Meckel’s diverticulum in children is effective.
