CT colonography evaluation of the relationship between colon anatomy and diverticula.

CONCLUSIONS: The presence of colonic diverticula was significantly inversely correlated with TCL.The TCL was not significantly correlated with polyps and cancers. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: The presence of colonic diverticula was significantly inversely correlated with total colon length, and in particular they significantly decreased with increasing colon length; our observation could contribute to the comprehension of diverticula pathogenesis.
