AB206. SOH26AB_0226. Perforated jejunal diverticulitis, a rare abdominal pathology: a case report

Small bowel diverticulosis is thought to occur in approximately 0.3% to 2.3% of patients, presenting with nonspecific abdominal symptoms. In 10–20% of these cases, complications such as diverticulitis or perforation occur. The duodenum is more commonly associated with diverticula, with jejunoileal diverticula being a rarer phenomenon. We present a case of a 69-year-old patient who presented with acute abdominal pain, subsequently diagnosed as a perforated jejunal diverticulitis.
