PEREZ-QUINTERO, Rocio et al. Intraluminal duodenal diverticulum as a cause of duodenal obstruction. rev. colomb. cir. [online]. 2022, vol.37, n.1, pp.142-145. Epub 22-Mar-2022. ISSN 2011-7582. https://doi.org/10.30944/20117582.865.
Introduction:
Intraluminal duodenal diverticulum, also known as a windsock diverticulum, is a rare cause of intermittent abdominal pain and postprandial fullness, which can be complicated by obstruction, bleeding, pancreatitis, or cholangitis. It is usually asymptomatic and when symptoms appear, the treatment of choice is surgical.
Clinical case:
We present the case of a 24-year-old woman with no relevant history who is studied for abdominal pain and postprandial fullness, presented with an upper intestinal obstruction. After an exhaustive study and the need for a previous surgery, she was diagnosed with an intraluminal duodenal diverticulum.
Conclusion:
The patient was treated by surgery with successful resolution of the intestinal obstruction.
