[Laparoscopic diverticulectomy for ileal volvulus on Meckel's diverticulum].
1994
: Laparoscopy in the emergency setting is a logical extension of this technique. Open laparoscopy is particularly useful in the management of acute abdomen. In fact, after a sequential work-out that includes physical examination, laboratory data, plain abdominal x-rays and ultrasonography, diagnostic laparoscopy is advocated. The Authors herein report a case of intestinal obstruction (volvulus due to Meckel's diverticulum) treated with laparoscopy. The efficacy and safety of the diagnostic and/or therapeutic laparoscopic procedure in the emergency setting are discussed.
