Diverticulitis and Ken Griffey Jr.

Sid Schwab on Ken Griffey Jr.’s bout with diverticulitis:

I should add this: surgery for diverticular disease is gratifying. It’s rare to have further problems after having the diseased area removed, and the comparatively small section that’s typical taken out leads to no side effects at all. So it’s a pretty happy group of patients. It is that for which we surgeons shoot.
