Its transmission is by feco-oral route. Meckel's diverticulitis due to E. vermicularis infestation is an extremely rare presentation. An 11-year-old boy presented with acute abdomen. During surgery inflamed Meckel's diverticulum (M.D) was seen. Histopathology examination of specimen revealed E. vermicularis. Till date, only one case of E. vermicularis infestation of M.D is reported around five decades ago. This histopathological confirmation is extremely important as the required treatment (Mebendazole) of the infected case along with household contacts can prevent the spread of infection and may avoid surgery in known contacts.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4103\/jlp.jlp_142_17","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,1,3]],"date-time":"2018-01-03T08:43:08Z","timestamp":1514968988000},"page":"106-108","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Enterobius vermicularis infestation leading to Meckel\u2019s diverticulitis in an adolescent boy: An extremely rare presentation"],"prefix":"10.25259","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Manupriya","family":"Sharma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Dr. RPGMC, Kangra, Tanda, Himachal Pradesh, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rashmi","family":"Kaul","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Dr. RPGMC, Kangra, Tanda, Himachal Pradesh, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bal","family":"Chander","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, Dr. RPGMC, Kangra, Tanda, Himachal Pradesh, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"10894","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,2,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"key-10.4103\/0974-2727.222155-1","first-page":"4369","volume-title":"Enterobius vermicularis in a 14-year-old girl's eye","author":"Babady","year":"2011","journal-title":"J Clin Microbiol"},{"key":"key-10.4103\/0974-2727.222155-2","first-page":"529","volume-title":"Meckel diverticulum: The Mayo Clinic experience with 1476 patients (1950-2002)","author":"Park","year":"2005","journal-title":"Ann Surg"},{"key":"key-10.4103\/0974-2727.222155-3","first-page":"860","volume-title":"Enterobius vermicularis in the kidney: An unusual location","author":"Cateau","year":"2010","journal-title":"J Med Microbiol"},{"key":"key-10.4103\/0974-2727.222155-4","first-page":"837","volume-title":"Assessment of frequency, transmission, and genitourinary complications of enterobiasis (pinworms)","author":"Burkhart","year":"2005","journal-title":"Int J Dermatol"},{"key":"key-10.4103\/0974-2727.222155-5","first-page":"284","volume-title":"Topical anthelmintic treatment of recurrent genitourinary enterobiasis","author":"Singh","year":"1989","journal-title":"Genitourin Med"},{"key":"key-10.4103\/0974-2727.222155-6","first-page":"343","volume-title":"Acute appendicitis and a Meckel's diverticulum with Enterobius vermicularis.First reported case","author":"Abramson","year":"1966","journal-title":"Am Surg"},{"key":"key-10.4103\/0974-2727.222155-7","first-page":"1519","volume-title":"Clinical and diagnostic relevance of Meckel's diverticulum in children","author":"Tseng","year":"2009","journal-title":"Eur J Pediatr"},{"key":"key-10.4103\/0974-2727.222155-8","unstructured":"Medical Letter, Inc.
