Abstract:
The case history of a 56-year-old woman with an acute abdomen is presented. Laboratory data, a plain abdominal X-ray and ultrasound examination provided no clues for a definite diagnosis. Surprisingly, a duodenal diverticulitis was found at operation. Some aspects and complications of duodenal diverticula are discussed.
