Primary Sclerosing Encapsulating Peritonitis (PSEP) With Meckel's Diverticulum: A Rare Case Report

Sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis (SEP) is a rare disease. Preoperative diagnosis of SEP can be made with imaging, such as computed tomography (CT). SEP is characterized by a partial or complete encasement of the small intestine by a layer of a thick grayish-white fibro collagenous membrane similar to an abdominal cocoon. The most common symptoms of SEP are abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. This rare disease often leads to acute or sub-acute intestinal obstruction. We discuss, in this report, how we managed a case of primary sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis with Meckel's diverticulum at our institution.
