pubmed:abstractText |
Diverticulitis has been described as a more virulent disease in young patients, necessitating an aggressive surgical approach. We hypothesized that the subgroup of young patients who do not require surgery on their initial presentation are unlikely to present at a later date with perforation and do not always require prophylactic resection as commonly recommended.
