Abstract EN

A-20-year old male, with no significant medical history, presented with clinical features mimicking a perforated acute appendicitis.

Because of features of peritonitis, a laparotomy was performed which showed a segment of small bowel with multiple large diverticula and mesenteric cysts.

A segmental small bowel resection was performed.

The patient made an uneventful recovery from surgery.

Histology revealed features of a small bowel hamartoma.
