Management of diverticulitis is a wide-ranging topic. In this debate, we focus on a crucial question that arises after a patient recovers from acute complicated diverticulitis. We start with the premise that "All patients that complete percutaneous drainage of large diverticulitis abscesses should undergo colectomy." Two expert speakers will debate the pro and con through data, guidelines, and personal opinion. This is a debate not to be missed!
