Furthermore, small bowel diverticular disease resulting in volvulus can lead to complications necessitating surgical intervention. In this manuscript, we report a case of large sacculated jejunal diverticulum causing small bowel volvulus in a 40-year male. The jejunal mesentery at the base of the diverticulum was adhered to the terminal ileal mesentery forming a narrow base and complete small bowel going into volvulus by rotating around the narrow base. This case highlights a large jejunal diverticulum causing small bowel volvulus as an uncommon mechanism of complete small bowel volvulus. Although a rare entity, familiarity with jejunal diverticular disease, its complications and its management should be part of every surgeon's base of knowledge when considering abdominal pathology.
