[Determination of colon resection limits in diverticulosis]

Results of surgical treatment of 112 patients with colon diverticulosis are analyzed. It is established that during operation it is necessary to perform such scope of resection which permits to create anastomosis between colon parts without their discoordination. The risk of complications from anastomosis decreases to 3.7%. The creation of anastomosis with significant discoordination leads to high risk of its insufficiency. It is desirable to resect the colon's parts with moderate discoordination. When the extension of of resection margins due to parts with moderate discoordination is dangerous, it is possible to create the anastomosis with ileo- or colostoma. In this case the risk of inflammatory complications remains, but conservative treatment of these complications in the conditions of feces efflux is effective.
