Intraoperatively, reduction was possible. The cause was an inverted Meckel's diverticulum. In this diverticulum we found a large perpendicular hyperplasiogenic gastric polyp as the cause of inversion and invagination.

Raoultella planticola (R. planticola) is a Gram-negative, aerobic, rod bacteria found in water and soil that has been on rare occasions associated with clinical infections. However, in recent years, there has been both an increase in the frequency and severity of R. planticola infections. We present the first case of Meckel's diverticulum perforation and peritonitis in a child associated with R. planticola infection and a systematic review of the paediatric literature. At present, in the paediatric population, R. planticola presents good susceptibility to a variety of antibiotics with the exception of ampicillin.
