Overview
There are risk factors for the disease recurrence. These factors include multiple diverticula, intraperitoneal abscess, family history of diverticulitis, and great portion of the colon involved in the disease.
Risk Factors
Risk factors of diverticulitis recurrence
Recurrence of diverticulitis has been reported to occur in 20% of patients with previous episodes of diverticulitis.[1]Risk factors for diverticulitis include the following:[2][3]
- Diverticulosis itself is a risk factor for recurrence
- Multiple diverticula
- Intraperitoneal diverticulitis
- Presence of retroperitoneal abscesses increase the risk of disease diverticulitis.
- Patients with family history of diverticulitis.
- Patients who have a big portion of the infected colon.
- Patients with C-reactive protein more than 240 mg/L are more susceptible for diverticulitis recurrence.[4]
