A Case of Meckel’s Diverticulitis with an Enterolith Treated with Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS)

Abstract

A 38-year-old woman consulted to our hospital with abdominal pain and vomiting. Abdominal ultrasound and abdominal CT findings showed Meckel’s diverticulitis with an enterolith. The Meckel’s diverticulum was treated with Single Incision Laparoscopy Surgery (SILS). Because many cases of Meckel’s diverticulum have been shown to be benign and it occurs in relatively young people, minimally invasive diagnosis and treatment are preferable.
