A recent review of the surgical management of diverticular disease of the colon included 73 patients. One-stage resections were accomplished in 67%, primarily in patients operated on electively for recurrent diverticulitis or fistula, and in the group of patients with cecal diverticulitis operated on for presumed appendicitis. Single-stage resection with ileorectal anastomosis is also preferred in patients with massive diverticular bleeding. For patients with large abscesses or diffuse peritonitis a two-stage procedure which removes the site of disease in the initial operation is recommended. There were no deaths and a lower incidence of complications in the group of patients who had elective operations for recurrent diverticulitis and fistula.
