Popis: Gastric diverticula (GD) are the outpouchings of the stomach wall. They are the least common diverticula of the gastrointestinal system (GIS). They are usually asymptomatic and are diagnosed accidentally by upper gastrointestinal contrast radiographic studies or endoscopy. Identification is important as they can cause serious complications such as bleeding or perforation. We herein present a case of asymptomatic congenital gastric diverticulum which was seen in computed tomography and proved with upper gastrointestinal endoscopy.
