Many of the serious complications of diverticulitis can be prevented by careful dietary and medical management instituted early in the disease. At least 80 per cent of cases of early diverticulitis can be successfully managed in this way. If surgical intervention is indicated, it is preferable to operate at a time when a one stage resection is feasible.

Abstract Diverticulitis is more common than is generally supposed. It should be kept in mind when considering obscure abdominal cases such as possible sigmoiditis, appendicitis, especially true transposed left-sided appendicitis, carcinoma, tuberculosis and some pelvic lesions. There are no characteristic symptoms known.

Diverticulitis of the ascending colon
The American Journal of Surgery, 1968Abstract Cecal diverticulitis is an unusual lesion and most surgeons have had little personal experience with it. Diagnosis, even at the time of operation, is difficult and consequently treatment is often inappropriate. A preoperative diagnosis of appendicitis and suspected malignancy at the time of operation are usual.

2016Acute left colonic diverticulosis is common in Western countries, but its prevalence is increasing throughout the world.
