Abstract:
The paper reports a case of Meckel's bleeding diverticulum which was diagnosed preoperatively using a selective arteriography of the superior mesenteric artery. The infrequent use of this instrumental test may be due to the small number of examples reported in the literature. In conclusion, the Authors underline that selective arteriography can be used with good results even in cases with hemorrhagic complications during the remission phase.
