Abstract:
Small bowel diverticulosis is not a common disease entity; however, it is increasingly diagnosed and linked to various gastrointestinal complaints. Although rare, complications can occur and may sometimes require surgical or endoscopic intervention. Furthermore, suspecting and diagnosing duodenal diverticulosis (DD) can be challenging due to the variety of presenting signs and symptoms. Much of our current knowledge comes from case reports and series. This report aims to document a case of DD presenting with severe right upper quadrant pain mimicking the signs and symptoms of acute cholecystitis. It also reviews and summarizes the available literature on the clinical manifestations of DD, its diagnostic approach, treatment modalities, and possible complications encountered in the ED.
摘要:
小肠憩室病不是常见的疾病实体;然而,它越来越多地被诊断出来,并与各种胃肠道疾病有关。虽然罕见,可能发生并发症,有时可能需要手术或内窥镜介入治疗.此外,由于各种体征和症状,怀疑和诊断十二指肠憩室病(DD)可能具有挑战性。我们目前的大部分知识来自病例报告和系列报告。本报告旨在记录一例DD,表现为严重的右上腹疼痛,模仿急性胆囊炎的体征和症状。它还回顾和总结了有关DD临床表现的现有文献,它的诊断方法,治疗方式,以及ED中可能遇到的并发症。
