The Gut Check hosts dive into one of colorectal surgery's debated management questions: Is laparoscopic (minimally invasive) lavage an appropriate strategy for acute diverticulitis?
Once hailed as a promising alternative to emergent resection, lavage has had a turbulent journey through clinical trials, outcomes data, and real-world practice. Our hosts unpack the evidence, discussing when lavage may (or may not) make sense, and exploring why surgeons remain divided.
