English abstract
ndividuals born with trisomy 13 tend to be susceptible to Meckel's diverticulum. It is rarely symptomatic and reported cases are extremely rare. We describe here a neonate with feeding intolerance and bilious aspirates as a result of Meckel's diverticulum and peritoneal band which caused intermittent volvulus with obstruction.
