case_images: Discrete inflammatory changes in the mesogastric fatty tissue surrounding several jejunal loops. An air containing mass suggestive of a diverticulum can be seen (arrow).

case_images: Some contrast-filled and air-filled diverticula were present in the jejunum adjacent to the inflammatory mass, and the diagnosis of jejunal diverticulitis was suggested (Figure 1).

case_images: Transverse CT section through the lower abdomen reveals localised inflammatory changes in the left mesenteric root (arrow). Centrally within this pseudomass, several air containing small-bowel diverticula can be noted (arrow heads).

case_images: (a) Transverse CT section through the upper abdomen reveals localised inflammatory changes in the left upper quadrant (arrow) accompaigned by extraluminal air bubbles at the mesenteric side of the jejunum (asterisk). (b) Small-bowel barium follow-through exam performed three weeks after the acute onset confirms the presence of multiple jejunal diverticula (arrows).

case_images: The CT of the abdomen revealed the diagnosis of jejunal diverticulitis with limited signs of perforation (Figure 3(a)). A barium study after three weeks revealed several jejunal diverticula without signs of stenosis or fistulisation (Figure 3(b)).
