Meckel diverticulum is the most common congenital anomaly of the small intestine that generally comes to attention due to a variety of complications, such as gastrointestinal tract bleeding, bowel obstruction or acute inflammation. These diverticula frequently are difficult to prospectively diagnose by imaging. Clinically, acute Meckel diverticulitis can be mistaken for acute appendicitis or Crohn disease. We present a 6-year-old boy with perforated acute Meckel diverticulitis that mimicked Crohn disease both clinically and by CT imaging and was definitively diagnosed using MR enterography.
