Anticipation of complications is of paramount importance for a surgeon. Incisional hernia is a well-known complication for abdominal surgeries. Risk factors such as increasing age, obesity, male gender are well known. Intestinal obstruction, strangulation and perforation are imminent complications of this type of hernia if they become incarcerated. Common contents of a ventral incisional hernia are small bowel, large bowel and omentum. Even though Meckel’s diverticulum is a common gastrointestinal anomaly, it is rarely found to be the content of a hernial sac. A hernia sac containing Meckel’s diverticulum is also known as Littre’s hernia. Only a few cases have been reported in the literature. Thus here we present a case of perforated Meckel’s diverticulum that was entrapped in the ventral incisional hernia.

Abstract Meckel’s diverticulum (MD) is the most common congenital anomaly of the gastrointestinal tract and affects 1% - 4% of the general population. Most patients are asymptomatic throughout their lives, but it is estimated that 4% - 6% will have some symptoms, which usually occur due to abdominal complications. This study aimed to report a rare case of Meckel’s diverticulum complicated by intestinal intussusception.

Littre Hernia

A Meckel’s diverticulum is a remnant of the vitelline duct, which leads to the formation of a true diverticulum containing all layers of the small intestine. The diverticulum can contain ectopic gastric, duodenal or pancreatic tissue and is the most common congenital anomaly of the gastrointestinal tract with estimates of prevalence ranging from 0.3% to 3%. The condition is usually clinically silent. In children the most common complication is gastrointestinal bleeding caused by ulceration due to the acid secretion by ectopic gastric mucosa.
