Core Tip |
Acute uncomplicated diverticulitis is the most common presentation of symptomatic diverticular disease. Taking the lead from evidence suggesting that acute uncomplicated diverticulitis may represent a form of inflammatory bowel disease, our study investigated, to our knowledge for the first time, the impact of oral mesalamine administration on early inflammatory parameters. When compared to standard therapy alone, mesalamine addition seemed to allow for a faster decrease of inflammation and for a faster recovery of the patients. Despite the limitations inherent in the study design, the results may , in our opinion, constitute the basis for future randomized, placebo-controlled, studies. |
