Giant air cyst of the sigmoid complicating diverticulitis: report of a case.

R D Harris, J E Anderson, E A Wolf.   

Abstract

A giant gas cyst of the sigmoid is reported, and the relevant medical literature is discussed. The vast majority of these lesions are pseudocysts and are a complication of diverticulitis that has not been emphasized in previous reports. The diagnosis should be able to be established by various roentgenographic procedures.
