Meckel's diverticulum is the most common congenital anomaly of the gastrointestinal tract. However, a neoplasm is a rare complication of Meckel's diverticulum. We report a case of a ruptured gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) in a Meckel's diverticulum, presenting as hollow organ perforation, in a 76 year-old woman. To our knowledge, the case we presented here is the 6th report describing a ...

Approximately 4% of patients with Meckel's diverticula develop complications, most commonly obstruction, gastro-intestinal bleeding and inflammation. We describe three unusual presentations of Meckel's diverticulum-perforatio...

Therefore, there is a significant gap information on diagnosis, classification management patients with such among practising physicians researchers. Also, urgency studying this problem due to complexity these malformations. This fact dictates need very careful correct approach t...

PURPOSE To evaluate the clinical usefulness of preoperative CT voiding cystourethrography (CT-VCUG) using 16-multidetector computed tomography for female urethral diverticula. MATERIALS AND METHODS Preoperative CT-VCUG was performed in 15 consecutive patients who underwent urethral diverticulectomy from May 2004 to December 2012.
