Diverticular diseases may be classified based on the presenting [[Symptoms and Signs|signs and symptoms]] according to the German guidelines that were published by the German Society of Gastroenterology (DGVS) and of Visceral Surgery (DGAV) in 2014. This aggreed upon classification system (Classification of Diverticular Disease (CDD), takes [[Symptoms and Signs|signs and symptoms]], natural history ([[symptomatic]], [[asymptomatic]], [[Complication|complicated]], uncomplicated, [[acute]], recurrent), surgical aspects ([[purulent]] vs. fecal [[peritonitis]]), and clinically relevant diagnostic tests into account. As a result, this [[classification]] comprises the entire [[spectrum]] of diverticular disease.

==Classification==
Diverticulitis may be classified according to the German guideline which was recently (2014) passed by the German Societies of Gastroenterology (DGVS) and of Visceral Surgery (DGAV). They unanimously agreed on another classification (Classification of Diverticular Disease (CDD)), which takes practical algorithms (symptomatic, asymptomatic, complicated, uncomplicated, acute, recurrent), ongoing surgical aspects (purulent vs. fecal peritonitis), and contemporary diagnostic standards in clinical practice into account. As a result, this classification comprises the entire spectrum of diverticular disease.<ref name="pmid2502600">{{cite journal| author=DeJoy SQ, Ferguson KM, Sapp TM, Zabriskie JB, Oronsky AL, Kerwar SS| title=Streptococcal cell wall arthritis.

Overview

Diverticular diseases may be classified based on the presenting signs and symptoms according to the German guidelines that were published by the German Society of Gastroenterology (DGVS) and of Visceral Surgery (DGAV) in 2014. This aggreed upon classification system (Classification of Diverticular Disease (CDD), takes signs and symptoms, natural history (symptomatic, asymptomatic, complicated, uncomplicated, acute, recurrent), surgical aspects (purulent vs. fecal peritonitis), and clinically relevant diagnostic tests into account. As a result, this classification comprises the entire spectrum of diverticular disease.

Classification

  • Typical cross-sectional imaging
Type 1b Diverticulitis with phlegmonous peridiverticulitis
  • Signs of inflammation on laboratory tests

Type 2

(Acute complicated diverticulitis)

Type 2a Microabscess
Type 2b Macro-abscess
Type 2c Free perforation
Type 2c1 Purulent peritonitis
Type 2c2 Fecal peritonitis
Type 3

Chronic diverticular disease (relapsing or persistent)

Type 3a Symptomatic uncomplicated diverticular disease (SUDD)
  • Localized symptoms
  • Laboratory test (calprotectin)
Type 3b Relapsing diverticulitis without complications
Type 3c Relapsing diverticulitis with complications
Type 4

(Diverticular bleeding)

Type 4 Diverticular bleeding
  • Diverticula identified as the source of bleeding
