The condition is usually silent and has been regarded as relatively innocuous. Sometimes patients complain chronic vague symptoms like malabsorption, pain or nausea, that easily lead to misdiagnosis. Acute complications are rare, however, they have been reported and can result in major surgery and high overall mortality.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case report:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We are presenting a case of a 67-year-old patient who presented to our department with abdominal pain and signs of peritonitis. The CT scan displayed an inflammatory mass with a fair amount of free liquid in the abdomen, as well as multiple diverticula at different levels of the intestine. The patient had to underwent immediate surgery, during which a resection of 25 cm jejunum and 80 cm of ileum has been performed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Jejuno-ileal diverticula are a very uncommon finding that can present formidable challenges in diagnosis and treatment. The course can be completely asymptomatic, however, in rare cases, the condition can lead to severe complications that often require surgery. Multi detector CT (MDCT) with intravenous contrast should always be the modality of choice for investigating a suspect of small bowel diverticula. There are no specific guidelines respect the management of jejuno-ileal diverticulitis, nevertheless, in the acute setting, bowel resection is the treatment of choice.<\/jats:p>\n                    <jats:p>As well as setting out the rarity of this case, our work intends to review the current literature regarding the epidemiology, natural history, diagnosis and management of jejuno-ileal diverticula<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Highlights<\/jats:title>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2019.04.015","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,16]],"date-time":"2019-04-16T11:55:31Z","timestamp":1555415731000},"page":"81-84","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Jejuno-ileal diverticulitis"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"58","author":[{"given":"Alice Maria","family":"Ramistella","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Massimo","family":"Brenna","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fabrizio","family":"Fasolini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marco","family":"De Monti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-22-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"132","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijsu.2018.10.028","article-title":"The SCARE 2018 statement: updating consensus surgical CAse REport (SCARE) guidelines","volume":"60","author":"Agha","year":"2018","journal-title":"Int.
