    Journal: Zentralbl Chir; 1989; 114(13):836-9. PubMed ID: 2800751.
    Abstract:
    A retrospective review of 102 patients (1979-1987) was performed to evaluate the surgical management of complicated diverticulitis. The following operative strategy was found to be effective: 1. the Hartmann procedure in free perforation and diffuse peritonitis; 2. resection with primary anastomosis in free perforation and localized peritonitis, covered perforation, inflammatory tumor and fistulas, if healthy bowel ends could be used for anastomosis.
