摘要
Inverted Meckel diverticulum has been reported as a lead point for intussusception in children. However all cases of isolated inversion of a Meckel diverticulum have involved adults in whom the diagnosis was clinically unexpected. We describe the sonographic appearance of isolated inversion of Meckel diverticulum in a 3-year-old boy with acute abdominal symptoms. (C) 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
