Abstract
Jejunal diverticuli is a extremely rare entity. We report a case of jejunal diverticulum as a cause of perforation peritonitis, which has been managed by resection anastomosis. This study is important from the perspective that clear cut guidelines for managment of jejunal perforation are not available in litreture.
