In most of the cases of intussusceptions, the cause is idiopathic in nature; the other causes may be infection, polyp or anatomical abnormalities. Occasionally, Meckel’s diverticulum may cause intussusception and inverted Meckel’s diverticulum leading to intussusceptions is very rare in children. It is difficult to diagnose inversion of Meckel’s diverticulum preoperatively. Here in we report a case of 6 yrs old male child, who was operated for intussusception and found to have inverted Meckel’s diverticulum as lead point.      </p>}, number={9}, journal={International Journal of Research in Medical Sciences}, author={Nayak, Sitikantha and Mishra, Baikuntha Narayan and Patra, Sudhansu Sekhar and Joshi, Ranjit Kumar and Pahi, Prabin Prakash and Paikray, Rajlaxmi}, year={2020}, month={Aug.}, pages={3370–3373} }
