Figure 1 Anatomic distribution of diverticula and site-specific bleeding incidence. Black arrows show gastrointestinal (GI) diverticula incidence. Incidence of diverticula bleeding is highlighted with a orange arrow. Jejunal diverticula accounts for a disproportionately higher bleeding rate (10%-30%). This distribution highlights the clinical relevance of jejunal diverticular disease in the assessment of unspecific GI bleeding. D: Duodenal; J: Jejunal; E: Esophageal; G: Gastric; C: Colon.
