Abstract
Incidence, localization and clinical characteristics of diverticulosis of the digestive tract detected within the period 1971-1980 are analysed. Of 12.352 examined patients, diverticulosis was found in 425 (3,44%). The largest number was detected radiologically and some endoscopically. Diverticulosis was most commonly found in: colon 355, duodenum 42, eosophagus 20 and small intestine 16 (of them 11 with Meckel's) and most rarely in the stomach, 12 patients. Symtomatology was non-characteristic. The treatment was conservative, except in the case of complications. Complications occurred in 39 (9,2%) patients. Due to complications, Meckel's diverticuli were actively searched for and all cases were operated on.
