%X The most prevalent congenital gastrointestinal tract abnormality is Meckel's diverticulum. It is discovered in most instances incidentally. It can be observed as painless bleeding in the gastrointestinal tract. However, it can occasionally result in acute intestinal obstruction, which frequently masks the actual clinical presentation. This is a case of a four-and-a-half-year-old male child who presented with features of obstruction, which, on further evaluation, revealed ileoileal intussusception. An emergency surgical intervention was planned with an exploratory laparotomy and a reduction of intussusception. This case emphasizes the urgency of diagnosing and managing intussusception to prevent serious consequences such as bowel ischemia, bowel necrosis, bowel perforation, peritonitis, and sepsis. It stands as a stark reminder for medical professionals to stay vigilant for these critical gastrointestinal emergencies, and immediate treatment with a multidisciplinary approach is recommended to significantly enhance patient outcomes.
