Abstract:-Diverticular diseases of colon form an important differential diagnosis in cases with right sided abdominal pain. The overall prevalence of diverticular disease is low but their importance lies in the fact that the incidence has been increasing in recent years. In the Western population, left side of colon is predominantly affected; but in Asians, the right side involvement is common. Here we are presenting a case of diverticulum of the ascending colon, which was solitary and presented with perforation.
Key words:-Right colon, Diverticulitis, Primary Anastomosis. |
