Topic: Diverticulitis



  
 Gale Encyclopedia of Alternative Medicine: Diverticulitis
Diverticulitis is three times more likely to occur in the left side of the large intestine.
The concern is that the increased pressure exerted on the intestine during these exams may increase the likelihood of intestinal perforation.
Touching this mass may prove painful to the patient.

 eMedicine – Diverticulitis (Diverticulosis, Diverticular Disease) : Article by Ahmed Sherif, MD
Diverticulitis seems to be more common in patients with the largest number of diverticula.
Asymptomatic diverticulosis is a common condition, but few patients with diverticula develop symptomatic diverticulitis.
The 2-stage surgical approach is the most common surgical procedure performed today for the emergency treatment of acute diverticulitis.

 Diverticulitis
Diverticulitis can feel like appendicitis, except you'll generally have pain in the lower-left side of your abdomen, instead of the lower-right side.
If you have moderate or severe pain, your doctor may recommend an over-the-counter pain reliever such as acetaminophen (Tylenol, others) or a prescription pain medication, although these medications tend to be constipating and may aggravate the problem.
Because diverticula by themselves usually don't cause problems, most people learn they have diverticulosis during routine screening examinations for colorectal cancer or during tests that check for other intestinal problems.

 Gut Feelings: Diseases: Diverticulitis
About 25% of those patients with acute diverticulitis will have a relapse and many of these will need a surgical resection.
There is much written but little proof that anything can be done to prevent a recurrence of bleeding diverticular disease of the colon or acute diverticulitis short of a surgical resection.
Patients who have diverticulitis often will present with the rather sudden onset of pain located in the lower left part of the abdomen over the sigmoid colon.

 THE MERCK MANUAL, Sec. 3, Ch. 33, Diverticular Disease
Exploratory laparotomy may be necessary for definitive diagnosis and proper therapy.
Diverticulitis is usually severe in patients < 40 yr old but is most serious in the elderly, especially those taking prednisone or other drugs that increase the hazards of infection.
Diverticulitis may present with free perforation or with abscess formation, which produces symptoms and signs of peritonitis.

 Diverticulitis Basics
The symptoms are similar to those of appendicitis, except the location of the pain may differ.
If the obstruction persists, abdominal pain and tenderness will increase, and you may experience nausea and vomiting.
Abscesses may form around the infected diverticula, and if these go through the intestinal wall, you may develop peritonitis, a potentially fatal infection that requires immediate treatment.

 Diverticulitis
Approximately one fourth of patients with diverticular disease develop at least one episode of diverticulitis.
Diverticulitis results from micro or macroperforation of a diverticulum leading to an acute inflammatory reaction in the pericolic tissues.
In patients with a localized pericolic abscess, CT-guided percutaneous drainage may allow single stage surgical resection of the involved segment with primary anastomosis.
