Complications of Meckels diverticulum (MD) are rare and occur in about 4-6%  of cases, more frequently in younger men. Most common complication is  bleeding; less frequent are intussusception, perforation and intestinal  obstruction. Detection of MD and its complications can be challenging, but  the combination of video capsule endoscopy (VCE) and double - balloon  endoscopy (DBE) allow more precise diagnosis and present a challenge for  clinicians. We described two patients with complicated MD: one with  perforated diverticulum after enteroscopy, and one with bleeding. Both  patients were previously examined for obscure bleeding. Due to the limitation  of conventional endoscopy, highly suspected MD is diagnosed with new and  innovative methods, VCE and DBE. In the first case the diverticulum was with  ectopic gastric tissue, in second case diverticulum was bleeding without  ectopic mucosa. Surgical approach required resection method. We need to think  about MD if we wish to diagnose and treat its complications.
