NMA/AGSM/2025/PUBH/006- Diverticular Disease of the Jejunum.

Small intestinal diverticulosis refers to the clinical entity characterized by the presence of multiple bulging in any portion of the gastrointestinal tract. The most common site for the formation of diverticula is the large intestine. Small intestine diverticular disease is much less common than colonic diverticular disease. Major complications include diverticulitis, gastrointestinal bleeding, intestinal obstruction, intestinal perforation, localized abscess, malabsorption, anemia, volvulus and bacterial overgrowth. We present the clinical case of a 50-year-old male patient with clinical diagnosis of rupture viscus on account of typhoid ileitis, intraoperative finding of diverticular disease of the small intestine (Jejunum), with associated complication of perforation.
