Giant colonic diverticulum: presentation of one case and review of the literature.
Since the first case described in 1946, fewer than 100 cases of giant colonic diverticula have been reported in the literature. We discuss the clinical, radiologic, and pathologic findings in a case of giant colonic diverticulum and review the etiology and differential diagnosis.
