Pak J Surg Jan ;37(2):149-51.

Meckel`s diverticulum is the most frequent congenital anomaly of gastrointestinal tract. Vitello intestinal duct anomalies are found in almost 2 percent of population. Meckel`s diverticulum along with vitelline cyst is rarely found. Usually they are found incidentally when patient is operated for other causes of acute abdomen like acute apppendictis. Pre operative investigations can reveal such anomalies. Symptomatic meckel`s diverticulum requires surgery. Case Report: Here we present case of Meckel`s diverticlum with vitelline intestinal duct cyst found incidentally in patient operated for acute appendicitis in a 14 years old boy on 19th September 2019. Studies have revealed different surgical treatment methods for symptomatic Meckel`s diverticulum.
