Perforated Diverticulum of the Proximal Jejunum with Abscess

We present a case of an older male patient, who was referred to our department due to long lasting abdominal pain. He had undergone abdominal X-ray, US and CT with contrast but the underlying cause could not have been unequivocally determined. The patient underwent an explorative laparotomy during which an abscess as a consequence of perforated jejunal diverticulum has been found and successfully evacuated.
