title: Computed tomography findings in an inflamed meckel diverticulum.
abstract: Meckel diverticulum, the commonest congenital abnormality of the gastrointestinal tract, may be difficult to diagnose. Appearances on CT are often non-specific unless there is connection to the umbilicus or a complication has occurred. We report a case of an inflamed Meckel diverticulum seen on CT.
