Abstract
Giant sigmoid diverticulum is a large air-containing cyst which represents a rare complication of diverticulosis. All such cysts that have been reported were found in the sigmoid colon and were associated with diverticular disease. The roentgenographic findings are unique and sufficiently characteristic to permit preoperative diagnosis.Keywords
