Saclike outpocketings of the large intestine wall?

The saclike outpocketings of the large intestine wall are called diverticula. Diverticula are small, bulging pouches that form in the wall of the large intestine. They are usually asymptomatic, but can sometimes cause abdominal pain, bloating, and constipation. In some cases, diverticula can become infected or inflamed, leading to a condition called diverticulitis.
