The perisigmoiditis can develop also owing to various injuries, band operations. Localization and the nature of pains at a perisigmoiditis same, as well as at a sigmoiditis.

  The diagnosis is made on the basis of a clinical picture, data of physical, laboratory and tool researches. At a palpation define consolidation and morbidity of a sigmoid gut.
