http://www.gutfeelings.com/DIVERTICULITIS.HTML

Extractions: DEFINITION The term diverticular disease comes from the Latin word diverticulum which means a "small diversion from the normal path". The colon or large intestine is that part of the intestinal tract which stores residue for elimination from the body. The small blood vessels which supply blood to the large intestine or colon do so by penetrating the muscle coat of the colon thereby producing a small defect through which the inner lining can protrude or herniate out. These small protrusions are called diverticulae. PREVALENCE Diverticulae are more common in industrialized countries than in third world countries. The reason given for this is the lack of bulk present in the diet of industrialized countries allowing muscle contractions to create localized areas of high pressure allowing diverticulae to form. The pressure created by muscle contractions of the left side(sigmoid) of the colon are considerably greater than those of the right side(ascending colon). This fact explains why diverticulae are more common on the left than right side of the colon. The prevalence of diverticulae clearly increases with age. While fairly uncommon during the first 4 decades of life they reach a frequency of 50% in people greater than 65 years old. SYMPTOMS DIAGNOSIS Acute diverticulitis can frequently be diagnosed by a typical history and a physical exam showing impressive tenderness over the sigmoid colon which is located in the left lower part of the abdomen. If fever and a high white blood cell count are present this is confirmatory. A barium enema or a lower GI X-Ray are not useful helpful because the ruptured diverticulum is not seen on the X-Ray. A CAT scan or ultrasound of the lower abdomen can be very helpful in showing an inflammatory mass over the sigmoid colon.
