| Popis: |
The omphalomesenteric duct (OMD) usually involutes by the ninth gestational week. If this obliteration fails, OMD remnant will result in different pathologies mostly in the pediatrics and infrequently in adults. The most well-known OMD remnant disease is Meckel's diverticulum. Omphalomesenteric cyst is rather rare, and their combination is even more exceptional with few cases in literature.We present an adolescent patient with nausea and vomiting and occasional periumbilical abdominal pain who was diagnosed with concurrent omphalomesenteric cyst and ileal diverticulum, causing internal hernia and bowel obstruction that underwent surgery.OMD remnants mostly present in childhood with symptoms of intestinal obstruction, and rarely internal hernias for which conservative management is usually not curative, warranting surgery. Imaging presence of cystic lesion in mid abdomen in young patient with bowel obstruction should raise the suspicion for OMD remnants. Presence of OMD cyst together with Meckel's diverticulum necessitates more extensive resection, rare concurrence which is better to be prepared for in advance.Preoperative radiologic workup is helpful to diagnose the obstruction and its probable cause. Presence of periumbilical cyst should raise the suspicion of OMD remnant specially in young adults with previous episodes of crampy abdominal pain and obstruction without history of abdominal surgery. Being familiar with possible concurrence of OMD cyst and Meckel's diverticulum will increase preparedness at the time of surgery. |
