Meckel's diverticulum is a common congenital gastrointestinal malformation affecting 2% of the general population. Most affected patients are asymptomatic, and excessive bleeding causing a significant drop in hemoglobin count is an uncommon complication of Meckel's diverticulum, especially in adult patients. Herein, we present an adult case of Meckel's diverticulum that nearly led to hemodynamic instability. Laparotomy and segmental small bowel resection were critical in treating the patient.
梅克尔憩室是一种常见的先天性胃肠道畸形，在普通人群中的发病率为2%。大多数受影响的患者没有症状，而导致血红蛋白计数显著下降的大量出血是梅克尔憩室罕见的并发症，尤其是在成年患者中。在此，我们报告一例成年梅克尔憩室病例，该病例几乎导致血流动力学不稳定。剖腹手术和小肠节段性切除对治疗该患者至关重要。
