In two autopsy prospective studies, at the Prosectures of the Departmental Hospital and of the Pediatric Hospital in Cluj, we found an incidence of Meckel's diverticulum of 1.16%, 1.46% respectively. Besides, we have retrospectively followed the incidence of the ileal diverticulum during the laparatomies performed at the Pediatric Hospital in Cluj between 1981 and 1990 on an acute abdomen of a supposed appendicular cause. Consulting the pathological bulletins which registered 8,385 laparatomies we found 200 Meckel's diverticula. Of the 200 diverticula, 64 exhibited a pathological process and 136 were trophic, and we suppose that they were found incidentally (incidence of 1.63%, corrected incidence of 1.38%). Up to the age of 16, 4.5% of the diverticula were excised. In the 64 symptomatic cases of ileal diverticulum, 50 presented inflammatory complications, 10 were ulcero-hemorrhagic, two were obstructive, one diverticulum presented an entero-umbilical fistula and one displayed a hemorrhagic infarction. Seventeen of the 200 diverticula presented heterotopic tissues; 12 of the 17 cases were symptomatic; in 64.7% of the cases the heterotopic tissue was the gastric mucous coat. Out of 8,385 laparatomies performed on an acute abdomen of a supposed appendicular cause, in 64 cases the symptomatology was generated by a meckelian pathological process (0.76%). An acute appendicitis was concomitantly present in 22 of the 64 cases.
