If you can get a hold of this article, it's open access. Lucas J P, Roberts C A, Gunderson C A, et al. (September 17, 2020) Acquired Diverticulosis of the Entire Colon in a Cadaver. Cureus 12(9).

The article states that "Patients with pancolonic diverticula may waarrant genetic evaluation to rule-out collagen disorders."

I have pandiverticulosis, too. Many diverticula throughout the whole colon. I haven't yet had diverticulitis. I do have chronic constipation. Hope this helps!

I will see if I can find the article. I was thinking it could be collagen related, especially with some of the other issues I have had. I am having genetic testing next year for Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. I wish I could get in sooner. I am hopeful to get a diagnosis. Thank you for sharing the info.
