Diverticulosis occurs when small, bulging pouches (diverticula) develop in your digestive tract. When one or more of these pouches become inflamed or infected, the condition is called diverticulitis.
Diverticula usually develop when naturally weak places in your colon give way under pressure. This causes marble-sized pouches to protrude through the colon wall. Diverticulitis occurs when diverticula tear, resulting in inflammation, and in some cases, infection.
Diverticulosis is a condition that occurs when small pouches, or sacs, form and push outward through weak spots in the wall of your colon. When diverticulosis causes symptoms, bleeding, inflammation, or complications, doctors call this condition diverticular disease.
ICD-10 code: K57. 32 Diverticulitis of large intestine without perforation, abscess or bleeding.
Pulsion diverticula occur most frequently in the sigmoid colon because the lumen of the colon is the narrowest resulting in the generation of the highest pressures.
The sigmoid colon is the terminal portion of the large intestine before reaching the rectum. It connects the descending colon with the rectum. The sigmoid colon derives its name from a Greek letter sigma.
Diverticulitis is more serious because infection can lead to other problems. Diverticulosis leads to diverticulitis in about 1 out of 5 to 1 out of 7 cases. Researchers think a diet low in fiber is to blame for a high incidence of diverticulosis.
They usually don't cause any symptoms or need to be treated. However, diverticulosis can lead to diverticulitis. Diverticulitis is inflammation (swelling) and infection in one or more diverticula. You may feel pain, nausea, fever and have other symptoms.
If you have diverticulosis, you may occasionally experience digestive symptoms like bloating, cramps, or constipation. The symptoms of diverticulitis are more severe than diverticulosis.
Foods to avoid with diverticulitis include high-fiber options such as:Whole grains.Fruits and vegetables with the skin and seeds.Nuts and seeds.Beans.Popcorn.
Once diverticula form, they do not disappear by themselves. Fortunately, most patients with diverticulosis do not have symptoms, and therefore do not need treatment.
Diverticular disease grows more common with age. About 10% of people over age 40 will get diverticulosis, and 50% will get it after age 60. It affects nearly everyone over 80. There are two main types of diverticular disease -- diverticulitis and diverticular bleeding.
You can have diverticulosis for years without any complications or problems. If one or more of the diverticula become inflamed, however, that condition is diverticulitis. While diverticulosis usually doesn't lead to any discomfort, diverticulitis can be quite painful.
