憩室病在美国是一种常见的疾病,在世界范围内的发病率明显增加。这种疾病过程的发病机制可能是多因素的,涉及饮食习惯,结肠压力和运动的变化,以及与衰老相关的结肠壁结构变化。下面的综述阐述了我们目前对憩室病和憩室炎的流行病学和发病机制的有限认识。
Diverticular disease is a common entity in the USA with an apparent increasing incidence worldwide. The pathogenesis of this disease process is likely multifactorial involving dietary habits, changes in colonic pressures and motility, and colon wall structural changes associated with aging. The following review addresses our current limited knowledge regarding the epidemiology and pathogenesis of diverticulosis and diverticulitis.
