Аннотация

Jejunoileal diverticula have a four-fold greater risk of developing general complications and an 18-fold greater risk of perforation compared to duodenal diverticula. While resection is not preferred in asymptomatic cases, surgical intervention may be required in life-threatening conditions. In this case report, a 69-year-old male patient with multiple giant jejunal diverticulum presenting with long-standing and transient symptoms was presented. The patient had a history of appendectomy 15 years before application. During the patient's last admission to the emergency department, contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography was ordered and revealed jejunum segments with multiple giant diverticula which were treated by excision by open laparotomy. It was observed that the patient's complaints did not recur and he started to gain weight. In patients admitted to the emergency department with complaints of long-standing abdominal pain, weight loss, and bloating, in whom diagnosis cannot be made, it is recommended to consider diverticulum originating from the jejunum in the differential diagnosis, especially in the presence of abdominal surgery history.
