description | The authors describe a case of a 60-year-old male with a history of a mass and pain at the right inguinal and epigastric areas. He also reported symptoms of bowel obstruction. Physical examination revealed a mass at right inguinal area, which was not reducible or pulsatile. Surgical findings included hernial sac contents with loop of ileum with signs of ischemia and a Meckel's diverticulum. Histopathological examination showed herniation of the Meckel diverticulum -Littré hernia. The article discusses the history and the incidence of this rare form of hernia. |
