An Unusual Presentation of Complicated Diverticulitis
This report describes the case of an 85-year-old male with abdominal pain and signs of diverticulitis on physical examination and laboratory results. CT imaging initially demonstrated equivocal findings non-concerning for inflammation. Re-evaluation led to finding of diverticulitis with formation of an intrabdominal abscess. Being aware of atypical presentations of diverticulitis may help lead to timely intervention in the setting of potential misinterpretation of imaging results.
