Overview
The most potent risk factors for disease recurrence include multiple diverticula, intraperitoneal abscess, family history of diverticulitis, and having a large portion of the colon involved in the disease.
Risk Factors
Risk factors for the recurrence of diverticulitis
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
- Family history of diverticulitis
- Having a large portion of infected colon
- C-reactive protein level more than 240 mg/L[4]
