Abstract

Introduction: Meckel’; s diverticulum (MD) affects approximately 2% of the population. Phytobezoar is defined as a vegetable and fiber-based ball in the gastrointestinal tract. We report a rare case of Phytobezoar within MD presenting with partial intestinal obstruction. Case Reports: We hereby present a 20-year-old man who referred to the Emergency Department of a hospital with a two-day history of nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and constipation. He underwent a midline laparotomy with surgical exploration, which revealed an MD 60 cm proximal to ileocecal valve containing Phytobezoar. Histopathology reported the extracted specimen as an MD without ectopic tissue. Conclusion: Meckel’; s diverticulum can be affected by bezoars as well as other parts of the gastrointestinal tract. We recommend that Phytobezoar within MD be considered among differential diagnosis of Bowel obstruction.
