Foreign body ingestions are a common occurrence in children. The initial presentation can vary from the child being completely asymptomatic to a variety of symptoms. Perforation of Meckel’s diverticulum by foreign bodies is a rare cause of acute abdomen. It is usually diagnosed intra operative. We here in report on an unusual a case of 3-year-old male child who came to the Emergency department with diffuse abdominal pain associated with bilious vomiting and diarrhea. The initial diagnosis was acute small bowel obstruction. After exploration, it turned out to be perforated Meckel's diverticulum caused by a swallowed chicken bone.

Vestiges of the omphalomesenteric or vitello-intestinal duct and the pathologic implications attributed to these remnants have been treated in great detail by several investigators. Persistence of the omphalomesenteric duct is associated with such conditions as Meckel's diverticulum, umbilical fistula, mucosal polyps, and sinuses or cysts of the umbilicus. Remnants of the duct in the umbilical cord, although infrequent, are located outside of the triangle formed by the two umbilical arteries and the umbilical vein, are usually discontinuous and are often represented by a small lumen lined by cuboidal or columnar epithelium. This study will examine the ultrastructure of these cells.
