Computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis revealed a dilated blind-ending fluid-filled structure arising from the anti-mesenteric border of the ileum with a narrow base and relatively hypoenhancing walls, suggestive of torsion and ischaemia (white arrows). Surrounding inflammatory fat-stranding is also seen. (a) axial section, (b) coronal section and (c) sagittal section, best demonstrating the narrow pedicle.
