Perforated jejunal diverticulitis: A case report
View through CrossRef
Jejunal diverticulitis is a rare pathology identified either incidentally on imaging or intra-operatively. a delayed diagnosis can lead to significant morbidity and mortality. We report a case of a 58 -year old with history generalized abdominal pain. Computer tomography scan revealed a perforated jejunal diverticulum. The patient underwent small bowel resection with primary anastomosis.
