A clinical diagnosis of acute appendicitis was made, but, interestingly it turned out to be a Meckel's diverticulum having enterolith intraoperatively. The patient underwent wedge resection and the post-operative course was uneventful.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Meckel's diverticulum containing enterolith is rare.
