Meckel's diverticulum is rarely seen on the standard small bowel follow-through and the diagnosis may be overlooked unless 99mTc -pertechnetate scanning or other complementary radiological examinations are performed. Three cases of bleeding Meckel's diverticulum with a negative barium sulphate meal examination and positive 99mTc -pertechnetate scanning are presented.
