ABSTRACT
La enfermedad diverticular duodenal es considerada en el ámbito de la cirugía de vías digestivas como inusual. Por su parte, la complicación menos frecuente referida en la literatura médica lo constituye la perforación aguda, y cuando esta ocurre siempre se practicará tratamiento quirúrgico de urgencia. Resulta polémico llegar a un consenso general que dirija la metodología diagnóstica, debido a su atípica forma de presentación. La tomografía abdominal ha resultado de gran utilidad en el diagnóstico de esta entidad. Se reportan tasas de mortalidad altas (25-30 por ciento) originadas, generalmente, por la dificultad diagnóstica frente a esta enfermedad. Se presenta un nuevo caso de divertículo duodenal perforado en una paciente, del sexo femenino, de 60 años de edad. La técnica quirúrgica empleada en esta oportunidad consistió en la exclusión duodenal y el drenaje del retroperitoneo(AU)
The duodenal diverticular disease is considered within surgery of digestive tracts as unusual. The less frequent complication referred in medical literature is the acute perforation and when it occurs always will be carried out the emergency surgical treatment. It is polemic to arrive to a general consensus directing the diagnostic methodology due to its atypical way of presentation. The abdominal tomography has been very useful in diagnosis of this entity. Authors report high mortality rates (25-30 percent) in general originated by the diagnostic difficulty in face of this disease. A new case of perforated duodenal diverticulum of a female sex patient aged 60. The surgical technique used in this opportunity was the duodenal exclusion and the retroperitoneal drainage(AU)

Caroli's disease or communicating ectasia of the intrahepatic biliary tree is a rare disease with unknown aetiology. The coexistence of this along with the uncommon condition of a gastric diverticulum has never been reported before. A deficiency in the fibromuscular matrix of both the bile ducts and the gastric wall may explain why these two pathologies may coexist in a single patient.

La localización del sitio de la hemorragia gastrointestinal es el factor más importante en la determinación del manejo adecuado. La hemorragia procedente del intestino delgado es un evento raro, y determinar el origen del mismo es difícil. Una vez descartada la hemorragia del estómago o duodeno por panendoscopia, así como del colon por colonoscopia, las alternativas diagnósticas son la arteriografía y el rastreo con radionúclidos. Presentamos el caso de un paciente con hemorragia procedente de angiodisplasia yeyunal asociada a divertículos yeyunales, en donde la hemorragia del intestino delgado proximal se identificó mediante gammagrafía con eritrocitos marcados con Tecnecio 99 mm. Sugerimos considerar ambos diagnósticos en todos los pacientes con hemorragia gastrointestinal de origen oscuro, así como realizar laparotomía exploradora temprana, especialmente en el paciente anciano.
