Diverticular Disease Acute diverticulosis Diverticulitis Surgery

Abstract

Diverticular disease is a benign disease, with a good response to clinical treatment, based on changes in eating habits, greater fiber consumption, potent antibiotic therapy in the simplest inflammatory processes, and the use of interventional radiology in abscesses. A surgical indication is restricted to failure of clinical therapy and more severe forms of the disease, such as strictures, abscesses, and perforations. The present study aimed to present a clinical case report on acute diverticulosis of the left colon that progressed to a reconstruction of the intestinal transit.
