    Pre-surgical diagnosis of Meckel

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Surgery
    • Diagnostic Imaging
    • Gastrointestinal Radiology

    Background:

    • Meckel's diverticulum is a congenital anomaly requiring accurate pre-surgical diagnosis.
    • Diagnostic challenges in pediatric Meckel's diverticulum necessitate effective imaging techniques.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of a double-contrast naso-jejunal-ileal intubation technique for pre-surgical diagnosis of Meckel's diverticulum.
    • To compare radiographic findings with Technetium-99m (Tc99) scanning in diagnosing Meckel's diverticulum.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a naso-jejunal-ileal tube for double-contrast imaging with radio-opaque fluid and air.
    • Performed radioscopic and radiographic examinations in seven pediatric patients.
    • Compared imaging results with intraoperative findings and Tc99 scanning.

    Main Results:

    • The double-contrast technique accurately identified Meckel's diverticulum in all seven children.
    • Radiographic findings correlated well with surgical confirmation.
    • Tc99 scanning results were also considered in the comparison.

    Conclusions:

    • Double-contrast imaging via naso-jejunal-ileal intubation is a reliable pre-surgical diagnostic method for Meckel's diverticulum in children.
    • This technique aids in accurate surgical planning and confirmation.
