However, its prevalence in younger individuals is rising. Atypical presentations will lead to misdiagnoses and unindicated surgery. Colovesical fistulas remain the most common type that is associated with diverticular diseases. A 16-year-old female patient presents with 2 months history of left-sided lower abdominal pain, in addition to, longstanding history of urinary incontinence since early childhood. Imaging studies, including computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, revealed complicated sigmoid diverticulitis by fistula formation to the urinary bladder and uterus, possible fistula to the vagina and rectum. The patient underwent successful surgical intervention, including sigmoidectomy, closure down of the colovesical fistula, and keeping of the vesicouterine fistula with plans for future repair by a specialized urogynecologist.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjaf721","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,6]],"date-time":"2025-09-06T13:54:10Z","timestamp":1757166850000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Complicated sigmoid diverticulitis in a 16-year-old patient in Saudi Arabia: a case report"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2025","author":[{"given":"Haifa Mohammed","family":"Aziz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, King Salman bin Abdulaziz Medical City , Medina ,","place":["Saudi Arabia"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mohammed Waleed","family":"Aljayyar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"King Salman bin Abdulaziz Medical City , Medina ,","place":["Saudi Arabia"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hanan","family":"Qabbani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"King Salman bin Abdulaziz Medical City , Medina ,","place":["Saudi Arabia"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025090609540860500_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"867961","DOI":"10.1155\/2013\/867961","article-title":"Acute diverticulitis in the young: the same disease in a different patient","volume":"2013","author":"Pisanu","year":"2013","journal-title":"Gastroenterol Res Pract"},{"key":"2025090609540860500_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"363","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jemermed.2007.02.022","article-title":"Case series: diverticulitis in the young","volume":"33","author":"Cole","year":"2007","journal-title":"J Emerg Med"},{"key":"2025090609540860500_ref3","first-page":"156","article-title":"Acute left colonic diverticulitis in young patients","volume":"179","author":"Ambrosetti","year":"1994","journal-title":"J Am Coll Surg"},{"key":"2025090609540860500_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"443","DOI":"10.1016\/S0002-9610(05)81177-8","article-title":"Virulent diverticular disease in young obese men","volume":"164","author":"Schauer","year":"1992","journal-title":"Am J Surg"},{"key":"2025090609540860500_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"2932","DOI":"10.3748\/wjg.v12.i18.2932","article-title":"Diverticulitis in the young patient\u2014is it different?","volume":"12","author":"Lahat","year":"2006","journal-title":"World J Gastroenterol"},{"key":"2025090609540860500_ref6","first-page":"258","article-title":"Coloenteric fistula in a young patient with recurrent diverticulitis: a case report and review of the literature","volume":"74","author":"Ahmad","year":"2016","journal-title":"Neth J Med"},{"key":"2025090609540860500_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"203","DOI":"10.14740\/gr1166","article-title":"Acute diverticulitis: a rare cause of abdominal pain","volume":"12","author":"Kamal","year":"2019","journal-title":"Gastroenterol Res"},{"key":"2025090609540860500_ref8","first-page":"e37511","article-title":"Atypical presentation of diverticulitis in a young Hispanic male: a case report","volume":"15","author":"Arfan","year":"2023","journal-title":"Cureus"},{"key":"2025090609540860500_ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1156","DOI":"10.1007\/s10620-021-06956-w","article-title":"Acute diverticulitis in young patients: a review of the changing epidemiology and etiology","volume":"67","author":"Turner","year":"2022","journal-title":"Dig Dis Sci"}],"container-title":["Journal of Surgical Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article-pdf\/2025\/9\/rjaf721\/64217242\/rjaf721.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"syndication"},{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article-pdf\/2025\/9\/rjaf721\/64217242\/rjaf721.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,6]],"date-time":"2025-09-06T13:54:11Z","timestamp":1757166851000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/jscr\/article\/doi\/10.1093\/jscr\/rjaf721\/8248752"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,1]]},"references-count":9,"journal-issue":{"issue":"9","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1093\/jscr\/rjaf721","relation":{},"ISSN":["2042-8812"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2042-8812","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published-other":{"date-parts":[[2025,9]]},"published":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,1]]},"article-number":"rjaf721"}}
