Case Study and Case Report 2022; 12(3): 29 - 33. ABSTRACT It is uncommon for an inverted Meckel diverticulum to develop adult intussusception. We describe a Turkish male, age 30, who had intussusception brought on by meckel diverticulitis. Computed CT indicated ileo-ileal intussusception. Ilio-ileal intussusception with Meckel's diverticulum was discovered during exploration. There was a diverticulectomy along with a minor bowel resection. Key words: Intussusception, Meckel diverticulum
