Diverticulitis Surgery is performed to treat complications from diverticulitis, such as abscesses, perforations, or bowel obstruction. The surgery typically involves removing the affected portion of the colon where diverticula (pouches) have become inflamed or infected.

The procedure may be performed laparoscopically or through open surgery, depending on the severity of the condition. In some cases, a temporary colostomy may be necessary if the colon needs to be diverted to heal.

Postoperative care includes monitoring for infections, managing pain, and gradually reintroducing a normal diet. Patients are also advised to avoid constipation and follow a high-fiber diet to reduce the risk of future flare-ups.

Diverticulitis surgery provides effective relief for patients with severe complications, significantly improving quality of life and preventing recurrence.
