Delayed imaging for detection of Meckel's diverticulum in Tc-99m pertechnetate scintigraphy
Tc-99m pertechnetate scintigraphy is the modality of choice for diagnosis of Meckel's diverticulum. Interpretation of Meckel's scan identifies a focal area of radiopharmaceutical uptake in the anterior abdomen similar to normal gastric mucosa. The activity must be of the same pattern and intensity as gastric uptake. We present a 13-year-old patient with gastrointest...
متن کاملIntestinal duplication with ectopic gastric mucosa diagnosed by Meckel's diverticulum scan
Gastrointestinal duplications are rare congenital malformations and they may vary greatly in presentation, size, location and symptoms. The presence of ectopic gastric mucosa (EGM) in them is not common and they are difficult to diagnose prior to surgery. We present the case of a child with long intestinal duplication with ectopic gastric mucosa who presented with just severe anaemia and delaye...

متن کاملMeckels diverticulum and intestinal ischaemia
We report an exceptional case of intestinal ischaemia requiring resection, secondary to torsion around a long Meckel's diverticulum. Meckel's diverticulum is an uncommon congenital abnormality of the small bowel. Meckel's diverticulum giving rise to intestinal ischaemia that requires resection is very rare but potentially fatal complication. A 62 year old woman presented as an emergency with su...
