Abstract
Giant colonic diverticulum is a rare manifestation of diverticular disease. Although this entity can be discovered incidentally on imaging studies, patients can present with a variety of symptoms. This report illustrates the clinical presentation, endoscopic imaging, and histologic findings for this disorder. Surgical resection is curative and in select cases can be carried out laparoscopically.Entities:
