[Case reports on 6 patients illustrating some of the surgical problems of diverticular disease and its complications]

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The following six patients were studied by me while I was conducting a Pilot Survey into the natural history of Diverticular Disease of the Colon. This survey was carried out at the Western General Hospital, Edinburgh, during the Summer of 1961+ while I was the holder of a Gunning Vacation Bursary, tenable in the Department of Surgery. Accordingly I am grateful to the surgeons of the Western General Hospital for allowing me access to their patients; and to Sir John Bruce and Mr. C.W.A. Falconer for their personal encouragement during this project.
