From January 1986 through December 1992, 9 cases of diverticular disease of the colon have been surgically operated in our department. In 56% of the cases, diverticula were located in the left side, in 33% in the right side, and in 11% in the both sides. 67% cases had a complication of hypertension, 33% cases had hypoproteinemia, and 78% cases had anemia. Moreover, 67% cases had hyperlipidemia. Only one case had a minor leakage in the anastomosis after colectomy, which was cured by intravenous hyperalimentation. These results suggest that such a complication should be taken into consideration in the surgical treatment of diverticular disease of the colon, although the disease is in itself a benign disease.
