Diseases of Meckel's Diverticulum
Archives of Surgery, 1965Introduction ALTHOUGH the existence of the diverticulum of the small intestine was known from the 16th century, Johann Frederich Meckel, a German anatomist and surgeon in 1812, first described the embryology and morphology of the diverticulum which now bears his name.

A Meckel’s diverticulum is a true congenital diverticulum consisting of all three layers of the bowel wall with mucosa, submucosa, and muscularis propria. It is a vestigial remnant of the omphalomesenteric duct (also called the vitelline duct). It is the most frequent malformation of the gastrointestinal tract.

REGARDLESS of its size, Meckel's diverticulum may escape detection for long periods of time. It must be considered in every case of gastrointestinal dysfunction of an obscure nature. The diverticulum described in this case report is of interest because of its unusually large diameter and unusual position, as well as its prolonged symptomatic history ...

Abstract 1. 1. A brief review is given of the history, embryology and incidence of Meckel's diverticulum. 2. 2. The complications which may result from the presence of such a diverticulum are noted. 3. 3. A case of bowel obstruction associated with torsion and gangrene of a Meckel's diverticulum is presented. 4. 4.

Diagnosis of Meckel Diverticulum
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1976To the Editor.— Dr Max Cooper (235: 1471, 1976) is to be complimented for using a sodium pertechnetate Tc 99m scan to correctly diagnose a case of bleeding Meckel diverticulum preoperatively. Some years ago I reviewed all of the cases of bleeding Meckel diverticulum that had been reported up to that time ( American Journal of Surgery 47:612, 1940 ...

If there is clinical suspicion of a Meckel’s diverticulum, we abandon performing “Meckel scans” and proceed directly to laparoscopy instead.
