Diverticulitis in the United States: 1998-2005: changing patterns of disease and treatment.

TL;DR: Diverticular disease imposes an impressive clinical burden to the United States population, with over 300,000 admissions and 1.5 million days of inpatient care annually, but there is no evidence that primary anastomosis is becoming more commonly used, and dramatic changes in rates of treatment for diverticulitis are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

The management of complicated diverticulitis and the role of computed tomography.

TL;DR: CT evidence of a diverticular abscess has a prognostic impact as it correlates with a high risk of failure from nonoperative management regardless of the patient's age, and physicians should strongly consider elective surgery in order to prevent recurrent diverticulitis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Practice parameters for the treatment of sigmoid diverticulitis.

TL;DR: These guidelines are intended for the use of all practitioners, health care workers, and patients who desire information about the management of the conditions addressed by the topics covered in these guidelines.
Journal ArticleDOI

Image-based surface reconstruction in geomorphometry - merits, limits and developments

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review of the state of the art on using Structure-from-Motion (SfM) workflows in geomorphometry and give an overview of terms and fields of application.
Journal ArticleDOI
