Italian term or phrase: tamponata
From an abdominal CT scan report of a man with acute complicated diverticulitis:

"...e con riconoscibile adiacente raccolta a densità sovrafluida, con diametri assiali di 41*34 x 30 mm, con bolla aerea contestuale tamponata."

Thank you!

Explanation:
This may be what you are looking for. While researching the term I came across references defined it as "plugged", so "containing" air or fluid.

"The CT findings in complicated diverticulitis may include the presence of an abscess (defined as a fluid-containing mass with or without air and an enhancing wall), and contained or free extraluminal air bubbles or pockets. Other complications such as bowel obstruction, hepatic abscess, fistula and inferior mesenteric vein thrombosis can often be demonstrated with CT."
