Authors' objectives:
Is laparoscopic surgery with peritoneal lavage a better method for treatment of perforated diverticulitis, Hinchey grade III (purulent peritonitis), than open surgery with resection,
regarding redo surgery rates, morbidity, mortality, stoma rate, and quality of life?
Authors' recommendations:
The scientific support is very low (GRADE OOO) for treatment of perforated diverticulitis (Hinchey grade III) with laparoscopy, peritoneal lavage, and drainage instead of currentstandard treatment with resection, stoma, and drainage, for the studied outcome measures. A Nordic randomized controlled trial is ongoing, and three additional European studies are planned. It is important that this method at present is only used in controlled trials in order to improve the knowledge base.
