Perforated diverticulitis is a severe complication of diverticulitis, where small pouches (diverticula) in the colon become inflamed and can develop a hole or perforation. This perforation can lead to the leakage of intestinal contents into the abdominal cavity, resulting in peritonitis, a serious and potentially life-threatening condition. Symptoms may include severe abdominal pain, fever, and changes in bowel habits. Treatment often requires emergency surgery to repair the perforation and may involve resection of affected bowel segments.
