Abstrakt: | We describe a case of an inverted Meckel's diverticulum presenting as an intraluminal subepithelial lesion on intraoperative enteroscopy. A 53-year-old woman presented with chronic iron deficiency anemia unresponsive to escalating iron supplementation. After equivocal upper and lower endoscopy and negative cross-sectional imaging, capsule endoscopy suggested a submucosal mass lesion in the proximal ileum. Antegrade double-balloon enteroscopy was unsuccessful in reaching the lesion. A large pedunculated, submucosal-appearing lesion was finally identified on intraoperative enteroscopy. The mass was surgically resected, and final pathology confirmed an inverted Meckel's diverticulum. (© 2022 The Author(s).
