Hypothesis: Patients with diverticulitis are at a lifetime risk for emergency colectomy and colostomy. Age and recurrence characteristics can serve to predict the risk for these adverse outcomes.Design: Time-to-event analysis and logistic regression were used to determine the risk of emergency colectomy/colostomy.Setting and Patients: A retrospective cohort study using a statewide administrative database and identifying all patients hospitalized nonelectively for diverticulitis (1987-2001).Main Outcome Measure: Emergency colectomy and/or colostomy in patients treated nonsurgically after a first episode of acute diverticulitis.Results: A total of 25 058 patients (mean age [+/- SD], 69 [16] years, 60% female) were hospitalized for an initial episode of diverticulitis. Of the 20 136 patients treated without initial operation, 19% had recurrences, with younger patients (< 50 years) more likely to have a recurrence than older patients (27% vs 17%, P
