Protein-losing Enteropathy Caused by Spontaneous Reduction of Intussusception with Meckel's Diverticulum.

Protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) is a relatively rare condition. In this article, we report the case of a 6-year-old boy diagnosed with PLE who developed intussusception, in whom at operation Meckel's diverticulum was identified in his intestine. Spontaneous reduction of intussusception is thought to relate to the mechanism of PLE.
