The feasibility of laparoscopic management of complicated diverticulitis and mixed diverticular fistulas has been demonstrated. However, few studies on the laparoscopic management of diverticular colovesical fistulas exist. A retrospective analysis was performed of 15 patients with diverticular colovesical fistula, who underwent laparoscopic-assisted anterior resection and bladder repair. Median operating time was 135 minutes and median blood loss, 75 mL. Five patients were converted to an open procedure (33.3%) with an associated increase in hospital stay (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 0.035). Median time to return of bowel function was 2 days and median length of stay, 6 days. Overall morbidity was 20% with no major complications. There was no mortality. There was no recurrence during median follow-up of 12.4 months. These results suggest that laparoscopic management of diverticular colovesical fistulas is both feasible and safe in the setting of appropriate surgical expertise.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.9738\/intsurg-d-13-00024.1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,5,23]],"date-time":"2013-05-23T10:58:28Z","timestamp":1369306708000},"page":"101-109","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":38,"title":["Laparoscopic Management of Diverticular Colovesical Fistula: Experience in 15 Cases and Review of the Literature"],"prefix":"10.9738","volume":"98","author":[{"given":"Lucy A.","family":"Marney","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Surgery, The Townsville Hospital, Townsville, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yik-Hong","family":"Ho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Professor of Surgery, James Cook University, Townsville, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"4721","reference":[{"issue":"4","key":"i0020-8868-98-2-101-b01","series-title":"Surg Endosc","first-page":"430","article-title":"Diagnosis and treatment of diverticular disease: results of a consensus development conference.
