Official Title: Predictive Value of the Diverticular Inflammation and Complication Assessment (DICA) Endoscopic Classification on the Outcome of the Diverticular Disease of the Colon: a P

Brief Summary:

The Diverticular Inflammation and Complication Assessment (DICA) is an endoscopic classification for diverticulosis and diverticular disease of the colon.

The aim of the study is to show that DICA classification is a valid parameter to predict the risk of acute diverticulitis occurrence/recurrence and the need of surgery in patients suffering from diverticulosis/diverticular disease of the colon.
