Core Tip	In Asian countries, including South Korea, diverticulosis is relatively rare and usually detected on the right side of the colon. In the present study, the outcome of the surgical management of left-sided and right-sided diverticular disease was assessed. The results demonstrate that the incidence of left-sided diverticular disease in South Korea is increasing. Furthermore, left-sided disease is generally more severe than right-sided disease and associated with worse surgical outcomes.
