Giant Meckel's diverticulum containing enteroliths: typical CT imaging findings.
We report a case of a giant Meckel's diverticulum containing numerous enteroliths. A correct diagnosis was made preoperatively by means of CT, by demonstrating a connection between the diverticulum, containing multiple peripherally calcified stones, and the small intestine.
