Jejunoileal diverticulosis (JID) is a rare condition with a reported incidence lower than 0.1% (1-3). Surgery is the definitive treatment for JID and can be considered to improve the patient's quality of life and to prevent further occurrence of severe symptoms (3, 4, 5). Minimally invasive approach facilitates postoperative recovery, lowers risks and improves outcomes in JID treatment (6). This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Article Synopsis
- Small-bowel diverticulosis is an uncommon condition, but this case involves a 46-year-old man who experienced severe abdominal pain caused by an ileal diverticulum.
- Initial examination revealed tenderness and signs of peritonitis, leading to a CT scan that indicated an issue in the small bowel.
- The surgical procedure started with laparoscopy but transitioned to a laparotomy for bowel resection and anastomosis after identifying a diverticulum measuring 4 cm by 2 cm, resulting in the patient's symptom relief post-surgery.
