Dr Harshvardhan Chaukulkar, Dr Pradeep Sharma

Abstract :

A young female presented with severe abdominal pain and constipation since the last 5 days. On evaluation and diagnostics, she was suffering from Acute Intestinal Obstruction. Exploratory Laparotomy was performed and a gangrene of the small bowel was noted. An Ileo–Cecal Volvulus was also seen due to the rotation of the bowel around a Vitello–Intestinal Band. A Meckel�s diverticulum was also noted in the gangrenous bowel loop of the terminal ileum. The management of this case along with this rare presentation is discussed in this interesting case report
