  • Title: Giant sigmoid diverticulitis. A cause of partial small bowel obstruction.
    Author: Ona FV, Salamone RP, Mehnert PJ.
    Journal: Am J Gastroenterol; 1980 Apr; 73(4):350-2. PubMed ID: 7416132.
    Abstract:
    Partial small bowel obstruction developed in a patient with associated giant sigmoid diverticulitis. This complication resulted from the wall of the diverticulum adhering to a loop of terminal ileum. Small bowel obstruction had not been observed in the 15 cases of giant sigmoid diverticula reported in the literature.
