When you have acute diverticulitis, a perforated colon is not that unusual because diverticulitis causes tiny tears — perforations — in the colon walls. These tears can grow larger and become problematic. Colonic perforation can also be a life-threatening complication of recent colon surgery called anastomotic leakage.
Every patient who has diverticulitis has diverticulosis, but not every patient who has diverticulosis will have diverticulitis. Therefore, when you are billing diverticulitis you do not need to add the dx of diverticulosis, as we know they have it or they would not have diverticulitis.
Diverticulitis is caused by an infection of one or more of the diverticula. It is thought an infection develops when a hard piece of stool or undigested food gets trapped in one of the pouches. This gives bacteria in the stool the chance to multiply and spread, triggering an infection.
The most common causes of acute diverticulitis are fecal impaction, diarrhea, appendicitis, or obstruction by colon cancer. In the past, some foods were thought to cause diverticulitis, like nuts and seeds, beans, and fried foods.
Perforation of diverticulitis occurs secondary to severe inflammation of bowel wall layers with subsequent necrosis and loss of intestinal wall integrity. Perforation from colonic diverticulitis almost always occurs on the left side [3].

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.
Diverticulitis is the most common manifestation of diverticulosis. It accounts for roughly 150,000 hospital admissions in the US per year, resulting in ∼ 50,000 bowel resections. It is defined simply as inflammation due to perforation of a diverticulum.
Intra-abdominal abscesses sometimes happen because of another condition such as appendicitis or diverticulitis. Many cases, however, happen after surgery. Abdominal abscesses can be caused by a bacterial infection. The most common bacteria to cause them are found in the stomach and intestines.
Diverticulitis is a common digestive disease which involves the formation of pouches (diverticula) within the bowel wall. This process is known as diverticulosis, and typically occurs within the large intestine, or colon, although it can occasionally occur in the small intestine as well.
