“…Furthermore, surgery for diverticulitis does not seem to fully protect against the risk of recurrence since the incidence of recurrent attacks is between 5.8 and 15 % [111,115,127], and risk of further surgery is up to 3 % [112,115,128,129].…”

“…There are two old retrospective studies [128,150] showing a significant reduction in symptoms and recurrent AD when a colorectal anastomosis was constructed, after resection of the entire sigmoid colon. In a prospective study conducted by Binda [115] on 242 patients followed for more than 10 years after surgery, recurrence or persisting symptoms were not associated with the level of resection.…”

“…We know very little about the results of elective surgery. We know now that colorectal rather than colosigmoid anastomosis is the single predictor of lower recurrence after elective sigmoid resection [20,21]. Moreover, only two prospective studies evaluated functional outcome after elective laparoscopic sigmoidectomy [22,23].…”

“…Índice de recorrência detectado de 5%, sendo o nível da anastomose o único fator estatisticamente significativo (p=0,03). (47) Para a realização da colectomia, utilizaram em geral três trocártes de trabalho (dois à direita do paciente para uso do cirurgião e um à esquerda para o auxiliar) e mais um periumbilical para a câmera, com os pacientes em posição de Lloyd-Davies, apesar de ter sido observada preferência de um grupo por posicionar o paciente em decúbito lateral direito, facilitando a exposição da flexura esplênica, mas perdendose conseqüentemente exposição satisfatória na pelve. (10) .…”
