Pnuemoperitoneum
CT abdomen (IV contrast; axial section)
Extraluminal air (1) is visible within the peritoneal cavity, indicating a pneumoperitoneum. A diverticulum can be seen arising from the sigmoid colon (2), which is likely the site of the perforation, as indicated by the mesenteric fat stranding and edema around the sigmoid colon.
3: iliac muscle; 4: internal iliac artery; 5: rectum with feces
Suspected abscess with gas inclusions in the left lower abdomen
Abdominal CT scan, transverse section across the ilium (green shading) and the sacrum (S), above the hip joint: extensive lesion (green area) with circular, hypodense inclusions (arrows).
Suspected diagnosis: abscess following a perforated sigmoid diverticulitis without communication with the peritoneum.
Abscess due to perforated diverticulitis
Axial abdominal CT scan with oral contrast medium: receding abscess in proximity to the left iliopsoas muscle, which was originally caused by perforated diverticulitis (not shown). The placed percutaneous drainage enables resolution of the abscess (1- drainage; 2- receding abscess; 3- diverticulum).
Fistula following a ruptured diverticulum
Contrast enema of the colon
The contrast medium is located in the rectal ampulla, the sigmoid colon, and the descending colon. Multiple diverticula (solid green overlay) are visible. A fistula resulting from a perforated diverticulum (hatched green overlay) can be seen in the sigmoid colon.
S: sigmoid colon; R: rectum; P: pelvis
