It has been reported that some patients have been misdiagnosed with Acute Cholecystitis, when in fact the correct diagnosis in their specific case was Diverticular Disease And Diverticulitis.
Diverticulitis are small bulging pouches that form in the large intestine and become inflamed. Symptoms of diverticulitis include pain, nausea, vomiting, fever, abdominal tenderness and constipation. Diverticulitis can be misdiagnosed as small bowel obstructions, primary epiploic appendagitis, acute cholecystitis, appendicitis, ileitis, ovarian cystic disease and uretal stones.
