The importance of inflammation markers in predicting perforation in acute sigmoid diverticulitis is not well known. Predicting perforation by clinical examination alone may be hazardous. If perforation is suspected, then appropriate diagnostic tools such as computed tomography (CT) are indicated, and surgical intervention might be necessary.
