Meanings of acute diverticulitis in inglês

An earlier surgical approach might be considered in young patients with acute diverticulitis.

The first case clinically mimicked an acute diverticulitis and consequently laparotomy was performed.

Only patients undergoing emergent surgery for acute diverticulitis were included.

Aim: To prospectively study the incidence and the natural history of acute diverticulitis in young patients.

Conclusion: Four readily available perioperative variables can be used to predict 30-day mortality after emergent surgery for acute diverticulitis.

Symptomatic disease, acute diverticulitis, and complicated diverticular disease seem to constitute distinct clinical entities with little crossover between groups.

Colovaginal and colo-ovarian fistulas are rare entities that could be attributed to diverticular disease after an episode of acute diverticulitis.

Early diagnosis and accurate assessment of acute diverticulitis are necessary to start an efficacious treatment promptly, either conservatively or by surgery.

Results: Among 31,778,290 individuals, we found the incidence of first-ever acute diverticulitis to be 2.9%.

Background: The incidence of acute diverticulitis is increasing, and prior studies showed a wide range of prevalence of colorectal cancer after diverticulitis.

We therefore compared the pattern of visceral adipose injury during acute pancreatitis and acute diverticulitis to determine its role in organ failure.

We advocate for colonoscopy after the first occurrence of acute diverticulitis to screen for colorectal cancer, particularly for patients without a recent colonoscopy.

An 85-year-old female patient with a history of acute diverticulitis 3 months earlier, was admitted with a subcutaneous abscess in the left flank.

Methods: A total of 207 patients hospitalized at our hospital between January 2000 to February 2005 with the diagnosis of acute diverticulitis were included.

Acute diverticulitis may occur in 10% to 25% of the patients, sometimes associated with the presence of complications such as abscess, fistula, and perforation.
