Laparoscopically assisted resection of intussuscepted Meckel's diverticulum.
We report a case of a Meckel's diverticulum with pancreatic heterotopia that had intussuscepted into the distal ileum, masquerading as a small bowel tumor and presenting with acute lower gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Laparoscopically assisted resection of the diverticulum was successfully accomplished.
