Overview
Common risk factors in the development of Meckel's diverticulum include histologic and anatomic features such as length of diverticulum >2cm, presence of ectopic tissue, broad based diverticulum, and attachment of fibrous bands to the diverticulum. Patient age of less than 50 years and the male gender are more susceptible to the development of Meckel's diverticulum.
Common Risk Factors
- Common risk factors in the development of Meckel's diverticulum include:[1][2][3][4]
- Age <50 years
- Infants
- Children <2 years of age
- Male sex
- Age <50 years
- Some histologic and anatomic features present in predisposed individuals include:
Less Common Risk Factors
- Presence of other congenital anomalies:[5][6]
