| Q I HAVE diverticular disease with bad stomach pains in the morning and discomfort most of the day. |
| This procedure involves inverting the diverticular sac and suspending it by suturing it to the prevertebral fascia so it cannot fill. |
| This lack of fibre contributes directly to the common diseases of gall stones, appendicitis, haemorrhoids, diverticular disease and cancer of the colon. |
| The cause is believed to be related to chronic irritation of the diverticular wall as a result of prolonged food retention. |
| What are the common symptoms and complications of diverticular disease? |
| The inflammatory infiltrate raised the possibility of an infectious granulomatous disease or a conventional diverticular abscess. |
