[Laparoscopic resection of bleeding Meckel's diverticulum].

The most malformations of the gastrointestinal tract are the Meckel's diverticula. In 25% of all complications of this disease you will find a bleeding of the diverticulum. We report a case of a 12 year old boy treated laparoscopically for a bleeding diverticulum and we describe the technical procedure. The first choice in diagnosis in the scintigraphy with 99mTc-pertechnate, at which the proof of ectop stomach mucous membrane is necessary. Laparoscopic resection of a bleeding Meckel's diverticulum performed by an experienced surgeon is a safe and considerate procedure in laparoscopic technique.
