Large Jejunal Diverticulum

An unusual case of giant ileal diverticulum–A case report

“…Diagnosis of small bowel diverticulosis is difficult and is often missed or delayed. Abdominal CT with oral contrast can reveal inflammatory changes around small bowel loops, however, in the non-distended small bowel, diverticula often are not clearly visible and it may be impossible to discriminate between diverticula and extra-intestinal air due to localized perforation and abscess formation [6] . Various other methods such as wireless capsule endoscopy can be used to diagnose small bowel diverticular bleeding.…”
