Meckel’s diverticulum is a congenital anomaly of the gastrointestinal tract, occurring in 2-3% of the population. It is generally asymptomatic and only manifests in a specific way when complications exist. The most common complications are obstruction of the small intestine, hemorrhage from ectopic gastric ulceration and diverticulitis. An unusual complication is entrapment of Meckel’s diverticulum in hernia, known as Littre’s hernia representing 10% of all complications of Meckel’s diverticulum. Clinically it is difficult to distinguish between involvement of a small bowel loop and Meckel’s in an inguinal hernia and accurate preoperative diagnosis is seldom made.
