| Description | Diverticulitis of the ileum is an inflammatory complication of diverticulosis. It is an uncommon cause of acute abdomen that can have a very serious course, leading, for example, to intestinal perforation or bleeding. Imaging findings are very often negative and the true cause of the condition is only revealed peroperatively. In this case report, we present a case of perforated ileal diverticulitis in a patient with bilateral pulmonary embolism. This was the main reason for conservative management in the first period of time. After resolution of the pulmonary embolism, resection of the affected bowel segment was performed at the time of the next attack. |
