According to current international guidelines, indications for surgical treatment of diverticular disease are inhomogeneous. To date, the measurement of pre- and postoperative quality of life (QoL) is underrepresented. To ensure an individually tailored therapeutical approach, and to avoid unnecessary surgery as well as the risk of a hazardous chronification of the disease, QoL importantly needs to be focused within the decisional process for the best treatment option. The aim of the PREDIC DIV-Study is, to identify predictors for a better postoperative quality of life in patients who undergo elective sigmoidectomy for diverticular disease. PREDIC DIV is a prospective observational study.
