Summary[edit]

Description Fig. 101. — Strangulation op Meckel's Diverticulum Causing Volvulus op the Ileum. (Redrawn after Elliot.) The specimen was from a man aged thirty who had signs of intestinal obstruction. The abdomen contained turbid fluid. In the incision a mass presented which looked like a large, dilated gangrenous loop of intestine, but had no mesentery. It sprang from the lower part of the convex surface of the ileum, and was slightly twisted at its point of attachment to the bowel. It extended upward into a dense mass of adhesions, and was found to be attached to the under surface of the umbilicus. It was a strangulated and gangrenous Meckel's diverticulum. It was about seven inches long, and had about the same diameter as the ileum. The small bowel at thia point was twisted on itself and held in position by adhesions. The gut was partially obstructed at the twist. The patient died on the second day after operation.
