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.

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.

The American Journal of Surgery, 1961Abstract Diverticulitis of the right colon is relatively rare, and it may occur at any age. However, since congential “true” diverticula are more common in the proximal colon, patients with this disease are on the average younger than those who have inflammation of acquired diverticula in the distal colon.

There are no characteristic symptoms known.

Colonic diverticulosis is truly a disease of the 20th century. A direct correlation is thought to exist between the incidence of diverticular disease and the amount of dietary fiber. Acute colonic diverticulitis occurs in approximately 25 per cent of the patients with diverticula, and 20 per cent of the patients with diverticulitis will ultimately ...
