Abstract
We report the sonographic appearance of jejunal diverticulosis in 4 cases. Jejunal diverticula appear as multiple peri-intestinal hypoechoic structures on sonographic examination. Many diverticula show communication with the bowel lumen. The diverticular neck formed by the prolapsed mucosal and submucosal layers can be seen as a parallel, echogenic structure traversing the bowel wall. Most diverticula also contain echogenic debris and air-related artifacts. Because jejunal diverticula may be encountered during a sonographic examination, sonologists should be aware of their sonographic appearance to prevent diagnostic errors.
