الإجابة: C. Is most likely to present as SBO in both children and adults
This is a Meckel's diverticulum (within 2 ft of the ileocecal valve). The FALSE statement is that it presents mostly as SBO in both age groups: in children it classically presents with painless rectal bleeding. The 'rule of 2s' includes 2 tissue types (gastric and pancreatic), and it can become inflamed (Meckel's diverticulitis) or bleed, so E is true. An inflamed diverticulum is treated by resection.
