Abstract
Diverticulitis generally has a good prognosis, and several studies have shown that uncomplicated diverticulitis can be successfully treated without administration of antibiotics. Questions remained about long-term outcomes, but the two-year follow-up results of the DIABOLO study confirm that initial management without antibiotics yields favourable short-term and long-term outcomes.
