Summary

Is It So Hard To Predict Complicated Diverticulitis?

Objective: Acute diverticulitis (AD) is a frequent cause of abdominal pain leading to emergency department visits. Many biomarkers have been identified to predict the risk of developing complicated diverticulitis. In our study, we aimed to reveal the sensitivity of these biomarkers in order to better differentiate uncomplicated AD from complicated ones.

Methods: 101 patients who were diagnosed with AD in the emergency outpatient clinic between 2018 and 2022, registered in the database of our hospital, were evaluated retrospectively. Demographic data of the patients and laboratory results at the time of admission were evaluated. Patients were classified as having non-complicated (Group I) or complicated diverticulitis (Group II) based on the World Society of Emergency Surgery (WSES) criteria. Laboratory values at admission, including albumin, white blood cell count (WBC), C-reactive protein (CRP), neutrophil count, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), were evaluated.
