with Hinchey III diverticulitis only were included in this study. Follow up was done for one year. Results:
33 Patients with Hinchey III diverticulitis underwent Laparoscopic Lavage with drainage, 18.2% of them
were Converted to open colonic resection, 9.1% had repair of identified colonic perforation with diverting
ileostomy, 3% had repair of burst abdomen, 15.25% necessitated Post-operative CT-guided drainage and
