Figure 2 Double-balloon enteroscopy showing small intestinal bleeding (A) and Meckel’s diverticulum (B). Double-balloon enteroscope was pushed 200 cm into the ileum through the anus. There was a diverticulum in the ileum 90-100 cm away from the ileocecal valve, at the opening of which there was an ulcer (1.2 cm × 1.0 cm). The ulcer was covered by a thin lichenoid substance without active bleeding. No other abnormalities were found. The diagnosis of Meckel’s diverticulum was established.
