title: [Colonic diverticulitis. Clinical aspects, indications, operative treatment (author's transl)].
abstract: In surgical practice colonic diverticulitis and its complications are frequently met. After a brief description of the more important etiological and pathogenetic aspects which are important for the development of colonic diverticulosis, the clinical part is chiefly concerned with the complications of this disease. Clinical and differential diagnosis take into consideration the complications in particular: perforation, penetration, fistula formation and hemorrhage. Operative treatment which takes these complications into account offers the possibilities of oversuture, antelocation, drainage with or without a relieving transverse anus and resection procedures either at one or several sessions. An attempt is made to define exactly the operative tactic procedure in relation to the individual complications.
