Abstract
Meckel's diverticulum (MD) is a persistent remnant of the vitelointestinal duct and is present in 2% of population [1]. It is the most common congenital malformation of the gastrointestinal tract. It can present clinically as haemorrhage, diverticulitis, intussusception, chronic ulceration, intestinal obstruction and perforation. Complicated presentation, especially bleeding, tends to be more common in the paediatric group, whereas intestinal obstruction is more common in adults [2]. Patients with a perforation of Meckel's diverticulum by an enterolith are rare and may present with right iliac fossa pain, which mimics acute appendicitis.
