Bladder symptoms due to silent sigmoid disease
The American Journal of Surgery, 1969Abstract Emphasis is placed on the occurrence of sigmoidovesical fistula as one of the obscure causes of bladder symptoms (frequency, dysuria, and nocturia with or without pyuria) likely to elude clinical detection. Two cases are presented which illustrate this point.

Influence of sigmoid resection on progression of diverticular disease of the colon
Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1984The surgeon is frequently confronted with the problem of how much colon to resect when operating on patients with colonic diverticulosis or diverticulitis. Two questions arise: will diverticulosis progress in the proximal colon if only the sigmoid is removed, and will diverticulitis recur in the more proximal diverticula?

Elective laparoscopic-assisted sigmoid resection for diverticular disease
Surgical Endoscopy, 1997Although the laparoscopic-assisted approach to colorectal cancer remains controversial, its use for benign diseases can have important advantages. The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of this approach for the treatment of elective diverticular disease and to identify preoperative and perioperative factors which can help to select ...

Use of the Recto-Sigmoid Index to Diagnose Hirschsprung’s Disease
Clinical Pediatrics, 2007The recto-sigmoid index on barium enema may aid in the diagnosis of Hirschsprung’s disease. However, data on its reliability in different age groups are sparse.

The Muscle Abnormality in Diverticular Disease of the Sigmoid Colon
The British Journal of Radiology, 1963It is not uncommon for pathologists to report that they can find no evidence of inflammation in surgical specimens of “diverticulitis”. In a consecutive series of 155 specimens inflammation was present in 103 (66 per cent). Abscess formation, even of a very slight or focal character, was thus absent from about one third of the specimens.
