Abstract
Littré's hernia (LH) is a rare clinical entity defined by the presence of Meckel's diverticulum (MD) within a hernial sac. Although MD is the most common congenital abnormality of the intestinal tract, most of its cases remain asymptomatic. It may, however, manifest itself in the form of multiple complications. One of its rare complications is LH, which is reported occurring in a mere 1% of all MD cases. The anamneses of LH are like any other hernia containing the gut, making its preoperative diagnosis unlikely. We present herein a case of a 16-year-old boy with an incarcerated LH at the inguinal region, which was successfully treated by wedge resection of the diverticulum followed by hernia repair.
