Acute appendicitis coexisting with Meckel's diverticulitis: case report
Özet
We present here a case with acute appendicitis and Meckel's diverticulitis which was clinically diagnosed as acute abdomen preoperatively. An eleven-year-old boy was found to have Meckel's diverticulitis coexisting with acute appendicitis. Although appendicitis coexisting with Meckel's diverticulitis is extremely rare, we suggest that the surgeon must bear it in mind during an acute appendicitis operation. If the surgeon overlooks it, the patient undergoing surgery may experience grave consequences. (Turk Arch Ped 2010; 45: 371-2)
