what is this?
-It occurs in 2 to 4% of people (more common in males) -sometimes vitelline duct persists -it represents a remnant of proximal part of vitelline duct (yolk stalk) -it typically appears as a finger-like pouch, 3 to 6 cm long, that arises from antimesenteric border of ileum, 40 to 50 cm from ileocecal junction -it may be connected to umbilicus by fibrous cord (26%) -its wall contains all layers of ileum and may contain small patches of gastric and pancreatic tissues -It may become inflamed and cause symptoms that mimic appendicitis |
