ABSTRACT
Background: Meckel’s diverticulum is the most common congenital
anomaly in the small intestine, which results from incomplete
obliteration omphalomesenteric duct, usually the diagnosis is incidental,
rarely reaching with bleeding, obstruction, diverticulitis or in rare cases
a neoplasm.
Clinic case: 67 year old woman that started her condition with urinary
symptoms (dysuria, frequency, bladder tenesmus and pushing), within
the study protocol a cystogram was performed and demonstrated a defect
in the bladder dome edges with compression effect, the computed
tomography reported a bladder infiltrating hypodense lesion, which is
decided to resect finding Meckel’s diverticulum with a tumor that infiltrates
the bladder dome, the histopathological confirmed the diagnosis shown
free edges but insufficient, which need a reintervention to increase
margins; all the extension studies shown without tumor activity.
Conclusions: Mucoproductor adenocarcinoma derived from a Meckel’s
diverticulum is a clinical entity that because of its nonspecific
symptomatology and variability of presentation, is diagnosed incidentally
on radiological images. The disease has a high mortality rate and a
low prevalence.
