Large enterolith in a meckels diverticulum causing perforation and bowel obstruction: an interesting case with review of literature.

Umesh Gadhia1, Devinder Raju2, Rajeev Kapoor1.   

Abstract

Enteroliths are a rare complication of Meckel's diverticula, with perforation of the diverticulum being an even rarer occurrence. Bowel obstruction secondary to a Meckel's enterolith, albeit uncommon, occurs due to inflammation, intussusception, or impaction after extrusion from the diverticulum. We report an unusual case of Meckel's enterolithiasis causing perforation and bowel obstruction.
