A Rare Presentation of Recurrent Diverticulitis in a Patient with Ulcerative Colitis
Diverticulitis and ulcerative colitis (UC) are two separate colonic pathologies with different underlying mechanisms. Diverticulosis involves herniation of mucosal and submucosal tissue through muscular tissue in response to increased intraluminal ...

This study explores the impact of aging on regeneration of the mouse colonic epithelium. The authors find that old mice exhibit excessive and prolonged inflammation after infection with Citrobacter, resulting in the maintenance of a fetal regenerative state in epithelial cells, insufficient tissue repair, and death of the animal.

Toothpick Colon Injury Mimicking Colonic Diverticulitis [PDF]
Although toothpick ingestion is rare, it can lead to fatal complications in the gastrointestinal tract. Diagnosing toothpick ingestion is difficult because most patients do not recall swallowing one. We report 2 cases of toothpick-ingestion-induced colon injury, mimicking diverticulitis.

Updated evidence on epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment for colonic diverticular bleeding
Abstract Since 2020, multiple large‐scale studies (CODE BLUE‐J) in Japan have accelerated the accumulation of evidence on colonic diverticular bleeding (CDB). This review summarizes the latest findings regarding CDB epidemiology and endoscopic hemostasis.

Role of ultrasound in colorectal diseases [PDF]
Ultrasound is an undervalued non-invasive examination in the diagnosis of colonic diseases. It has been replaced by the considerably more expensive magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography, despite the fact that, as first examination, it can ...

Abstract Ileostomy creation is common among patients with colorectal cancer, diverticulitis, and inflammatory bowel disease. Surgical removal or diversion of the colon can result in nutrition complications, most notably dehydration—a leading cause of hospital readmission—and increased risk of kidney injury.
