Core Tip |
Incidental Meckel diverticulum (MD) is rare but can be encountered during routine abdominal surgical procedures. The surgical management of incidental MD remains debated. We report a case of resection of an incidentally detected MD during laparoscopic appendectomy with no complications on the 6-year follow-up. ACS-NSQIP analysis demonstrated that concurrent incidental Meckel diverticulectomy with laparoscopic appendectomy does not increase morbidity and mortality. However, Meckel diverticulectomy with laparoscopic appendectomy increases resource utilization. We recommend resection on the basis of individualized patient’s factors and acknowledge that incidental Meckel diverticulectomy can be efficiently and safely performed in selected patients. |
