We present a case report of a patient with imaging findings of right colon diverticulitis that mimics colon cancer. The computed tomography showed a segment of narrowing with shoulder formation at ascending colon suggesting cancer. The colonoscopy and the follow-up imaging clarify the diagnosis of diverticulitis. We assess the value of computed tomography findings of acute diverticulitis in excluding cancer.
我们报告一例患者，其右结肠憩室炎的影像学表现酷似结肠癌。计算机断层扫描显示升结肠有一段狭窄并伴有肩部形成，提示为癌症。结肠镜检查及后续影像学检查明确了憩室炎的诊断。我们评估了急性憩室炎的计算机断层扫描结果在排除癌症方面的价值。
