Diverticulosis affects both sexes about equally, but diverticulitis is more common in females. Twenty-five per cent of patients with diverticulosis will develop diverticulitis; this percentage rises as the follow-up period lengthens. The probability of developing a complication increases with each attack of diverticulitis and when diabetes coexists ...

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.

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.
