Abstract
A 50-year-old man seen at another hospital because of abdominal pain and pointed out having an abdominal tumor with calcification on CT was referred to the hospital for close examination and treatment. The patient was operated on with a suspicion of a tumor of the small intestine. Upon laparotomy, there was a Meckel's diverticulum with an enterolith about 20 cm distal to the ileocecal region. Since the surroundings of the diverticulum became inflammatory and were adhesive, the ileum and the ileocecal region were excised. The mucosa of the diverticulum was ectopic pancreatic tissue. The enterolith was 2.5×2.5×1.5 cm in dimension.
Meckel's diverticulum with an enterolith is a very rare entity. This rare case is reported, together with some bibliographical comments.
