Meckel's diverticulum is the most common congenital anomaly of the gastrointestinal tract,affecting approximately 2% of the population.It is a true diverticulum occurring on the anti-mesenteric border of the distalileum,typically within 100 cm of the ileo-caecal valve.Neoplasms arising in Meckel's diverticula are uncommon,and those reported in the literature are mainly carcinoid tumors,followed by gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) and benign leiomyomas.Adenocarcinomas are extremely rare.Tumors in Meckel's present non-specifically with gastrointestinal complaints,such as bleeding,obstruction,inflammation or perforation.The suspicion of a Meckel's tumor is often not thought of at the initial.In this article we describe a 57-year-old woman who presented with massive rectal bleeding and severe anemia,later found to be caused by a adenocarcinoma arising from Meckel's diverticulum.The tumor was unfortunately highly aggressive.Multiple liver metastases had already existed when we discovered the primary mass.
