Contrast-enhanced axial CT image (a) demonstrates dilated small bowel loops (asterisks) with multiple air-fluid levels. Axial CT image obtained at a lower level and sagittal image (b, c) show the fibrous band at the transition point (arrows). The collapsed distal ileum (asterisks in b, c) is also seen.

Contrast-enhanced CT scan showed markedly dilated loops of the middle and distal small bowel with collapsed distal ileum (Figure 1a,b).
An axial CT image reveals a fluid-filled tubular structure in the lower abdomen (arrow).

The structure was deemed to be a Meckel's diverticulum (Figure 2a,b).
Sagittal reformatted image (a) shows a fibrous band (arrow) with dilated bowel loop (asterisk). The Meckel's diverticulum (arrowhead) is also seen. Coronal reformatted image (b) illustrates converging mesenteric vessels (arrowheads), consistent with internal hernia and mesodiverticular band (arrow).

A band-like lesion was demonstrated with multiplanar reconstructions in the adjacent mesentery (Figure 3).
