GIANT SIGMOID DIVERTICULUM

JACK G. RABINOWITZ M.D.1, JACK FARMAN M.D., CH.B., M.MED., SERGE DALLEMAND M.D., JACK TWERSKEY M.D., and YALE ROSEN M.D.

1 University of Tennessee Medical Center, Memphis, Tennessee.

The roentgenographic features and pathogenesis of the giant air-containing cyst of the sigmoid are described as seen in 5 patients.

These cysts are readily diagnosable on the abdominal roentgenogram and barium enema examination and probably represent a slowly progressing chronic diverticular abscess.

This complication, when recognized, allows one to more readily diagnose the colonic deformities visualized in the adjacent bowel.
