Acute abdomen in pregnancy presents many diagnostic challenges. Non-specific symptoms, anatomical and physiological changes and diagnostic imaging limitations lead to diagnostic uncertainty and delayed diagnosis and treatment. Meckel's diverticulitis in pregnancy is extremely rare with only 27 cases reported in literature, only 11 of which are found to be perforated intraoperatively. We present a rare case of a patient in third trimester of pregnancy with perforated Meckel's diverticulitis.
妊娠期急腹症带来了诸多诊断挑战。非特异性症状、解剖和生理变化以及诊断成像的局限性导致诊断不确定以及诊断和治疗延迟。妊娠期梅克尔憩室炎极为罕见,文献中仅报道了27例,其中只有11例在术中被发现有穿孔。我们报告了一例妊娠晚期患者发生穿孔性梅克尔憩室炎的罕见病例。
