Brief summary: The pathogenesis of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is considered immune reaction of gastrointestinal tract. Therefore there is growing evidence that IBS could occur after gastroenteritis. However, little is known about the incidence of IBS after acute diverticulitis. We thought that post diverticulitis status could induce IBS because diverticulitis was also bowel inflammatory disorder. This survey was designed to identify incidence of post-diverticulitis IBS and risk factor in Korea.


Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* 20 years or over
* Patients who diagnosed diverticulitis by CT scan from 2006 to 2010 (Case)
* Patients who admitted to hospital because of non-gastrointestinal disorder (Control)

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients who diagnosed IBS before diverticulitis (Case)
* Patients who diagnosed IBS before admission (Control)
* Patients with bowel resection surgery except for laparoscopic appendectomy
* Pregnancy
* Do not agree the consent of this study
* Patients who dose not understand telephone survey such as foreigner, mental retardation.
