    The work generalized an experience with the treatment of 747 patients with diverticula of the duodenum. Operations were performed on 326 of them (43.6%). In 172 patients the diverticula were associated with other diseases of organs of the abdominal cavity. Such patients were subjected to associated operations. The dependence of the clinical picture of inflamed diverticula on their localization is described.
