Eriþkinlerde ince baðýrsak týkanýklýðýna neden olan Meckel divertikülüne baðlý halka oluþumu: Ýki olgu sunumu

Meckel divertikülü olgularýn çoðunluðunda asemptomatik olarak kalan en yaygýn konjenital gastrointestinal sistem anomalisidir. Yaþam boyu komplikasyon oraný %4’dür. Eriþkinlerde nadir bir intestinal týkanýklýk nedenidir. Ýnce baðýrsak týkanýklýðýna neden olan Meckel divertikülüne iliþkin halka oluþumu oldukça enderdir. Biz, Meckel divertikülünün distal ucu ile proksimal ileum ve mezenter arasýnda halka þeklinde adezyonlar oluþmasýyla baðýrsaðýn týkandýðý ve strangülasyona uðradýðý iki olguyu sunuyoruz.

Loop formation of Meckel’s diverticulum causing small bowel obstruction in adults: report of two cases

Meckel’s diverticulum is the most common congenital anomaly of the gastrointestinal tract, and in the majority of cases it remains asymptomatic. The total lifetime rate of complications is 4%. It is an uncommon cause of intestinal obstruction in adults. Loop formation of Meckel’s diverticulum leading to small bowel obstruction is an extremely rare event. We report two such cases in which the bowel became obstructed and strangulated in a loop formed by adhesion of the distal end of the Meckel’s diverticulum to the proximal ileum and mesentery.
