“…This a specific symptom makes it difficult for clinicians to diagnose a duodenal diverticulum.

A 50-year old female presented herself with abdominal bloating and pain in the Emergengy Department. The symptoms persisted and a clinical evaluation was made. A lesion suspect for a giant duodenal diverticulum was seen on the CT-scan, which was confirmed by enteroclysis. Surgical resection was performed. The diagnosis was histological confirmed after surgery. Small bowel diverticula are relatively common, with an estimated 5 - 22% incidence in the healthy population. They are usually asymptomatic, but can present with abdominal pain and weight loss. Complications such as bleeding and perforation can occur. Surgical resection is the treatment of choice in symptomatic patients.

Kolonda inverted divertikül kolonoskopide nadir görülebilen bir bulgudur. Rektumda inverted divertikül görülmesi ise çok daha nadirdir. Kolonda inverted divertiküller, kolon poliplerine benzerler. Tüm polypoid lezyonlarda dışlanmalıdırlar. Poliplerden ayırt edilmesi, polipektomi yapılması durumunda kolon perforasyonu olma riski nedeniyle çok önemlidir. İnverted rektal divertiküller kolonoskopi sırasında çok nadiren görülürler. Burada rektumda inverted divertikül saptanan nadir görülen bir vakayı sunacağız.
