Introduction: The recurrence of acute diverticulitis (AD) of the colon is frequent and leads to hospital readmissions and the need for elective surgery in selected cases. It is important to individualize risk factors and develop predictive tools for their identification.
Materials And Methods: This prospective observational study included 368 patients who were diagnosed with AD between 2016 and 2021 in a tertiary general university hospital during their first episode and who had a good response to antibiotic, percutaneous, or peritoneal lavage treatment.
Objective: To analyse the diagnostic performance of the primary care (PC) doctor in benign anal diseases.
Design: Cross-sectional study including patients referred to our clinic from PC with the diagnosis of clinical conditions pertaining to benign anal diseases between 1st June and 31st December 2007. The diagnosis established by the PC doctor was compared with that of 2 medical specialists in general and digestive diseases surgery.
Background And Objective: To prove that a single-preoperative dose (SD) of metronidazole plus gentamicin guarantees the same clinical effectiveness than the same dose administered in a multiple-perioperative schedule (MD), with a reduction of the direct costs.
Patients And Method: A retrospective cohort study with patients undergoing elective colorectal surgery between 1995 and 2003 was designed. Patients in the cohort of cases received a SD of metronidazole 1500 mg plus gentamicin 240 mg between 1999 and 2003.
