Overview
Diverticular diseases may be classified based on the presenting signs and symptoms according to the German guidelines that were published by the German Society of Gastroenterology (DGVS) and of Visceral Surgery (DGAV) in 2014. This aggreed upon classification system (Classification of Diverticular Disease (CDD), takes signs and symptoms, natural history (symptomatic, asymptomatic, complicated, uncomplicated, acute, recurrent), surgical aspects (purulent vs. fecal peritonitis), and clinically relevant diagnostic tests into account. As a result, this classification comprises the entire spectrum of diverticular disease.
Classification
The following table describes the classification of diverticular disease according to the German guidelines (in 2014) by the German Societies of Gastroenterology (DGVS) and of Visceral Surgery (DGAV).[1]
