T-shaped Meckel’s diverticulum: a rare anatomical variant complicating small bowel volvulus

The Meckel's diverticulum is a congenital diverticulum arising from the terminal ileum and is the unobliterated proximal portion of the vitellointestinal duct. Intestinal obstruction due to Meckel’s diverticulum is the most common presentation in adults and is the second most common presentation in children. We present a case of a 58-year-old gentleman presented with acute abdomen who was later found to have Giant T- shaped Meckel’s Diverticulum complicating small bowel volvulus on exploratory laparotomy. A T-shaped Meckel's diverticulum has not yet been described.

Congenital Diverticulum at the Proximal Part of Penile Urethra with Secondary Calculus

Voiding dysfunction and lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) in children due to congenital anomalies of urogenital system is common, but congenital anterior urethral diverticulum (CAUD) in male is very rare. Sometimes the problem is associated with anterior urethral valve. CAUD with secondary stone is rare. Here we report a case of a 12-year-old male child with obstructive symptoms. It was treated by excision of diverticulum, removal of stone and primary repair.J Enam Med Col 2017; 7(3): 162-164

Congenital left ventricular diverticulum

Congenital diverticulum of the left ventricle is a rare cardiac malformation usually associated with midline thoraco-abdominal defects and other congenital cardiac malformations.

Endoventriculoplasty of the Left Ventricle for Congenital Diverticulum

Congenital left ventricular diverticulum is an extremely rare heart defect. Here, we report a case of successful endoventriculoplasty using a Dacron patch in an infant who was followed up for one year.
