Core Tip	Transmural migrated retained sponges usually impact at the level of the ileo-cecal valve leading to a small bowel obstruction. We report the case of a 52-year-old female with a past surgical history and recurrent episodes of abdominal pain. Contrast-enhanced multi-detector computed tomography findings were consistent with a perforated right colonic diverticulitis with additional evidence of hyperdense intra-luminal material. At surgery, a right hemi-colectomy was performed and on dissection of the surgical specimen a retained laparotomy sponge was found in the bowel lumen.
