Colonic diverticula are small outpouchings from the colonic lumen secondary to mucosal herniation through the colonic wall. Clinical presentation usually involves an acute or subacute onset of abdominal pain typically localized in the left lower abdominal quadrant as well as nausea, low-grade fever, bowel habit changes, and elevated inflammatory markers. We present a case of complicated colonic diverticulitis with vaginal fistula with eventual formation of abdominal abscess, presenting as vaginal bleeding and pelvic pain.
结肠憩室是结肠腔的小袋状突出，继发于黏膜通过结肠壁的疝出。临床表现通常包括急性或亚急性发作的腹痛，通常位于左下腹象限，以及恶心、低热、排便习惯改变和炎症标志物升高。我们报告一例伴有阴道瘘的复杂性结肠憩室炎病例，最终形成腹腔脓肿，表现为阴道出血和盆腔疼痛。
