Abstract
Aim The aim of this study was to determine the presence of inflammation in asymptomatic diverticular disease using inflammatory parameters and to evaluate the relationship between inflammatory parameters and the degree of complication in symptomatic diverticular diseases. Material and Method Clinical and dermographic findings of patients with acute diverticulitis, patients with diverticulosis and healthy volunteers were compared. Results A healthy control group of 31 people, 40 patients with diverticulosis and 32 patients with acute diverticulitis were included in the study. Thirty-one (43.11%) patients were female and 41 (56.9%) male. RDW and MLR were significantly higher in patients with asymptomatic diverticulosis compared to the control group (p=0.02, p=0.00, respectively). NLR and SII were significantly different among Hinchey groups (p<0.01, p<0.01, respectively).Conclusion We concluded that there may be a mild inflammation in asymptomatic diverticulosis patients, and NLR and SII can provide information about the degree of acute diverticulitis.
